Couscous Salad

Sometimes I provide just a couple of small bowls filled with well-chopped red onion for people to sprinkle over the lamb and chick peas as they like. The alternative is a couscous salad, which in effect is panzanella, only using couscous in place of the bread. I often put basil in it, but this dinner has enough going on as it is without introducing another forceful character, so I suggest parsley.
