Meanwhile, finely chop the onion, cucumber, tomatoes and capsicum. Finely chop the mint and coriander leaves (including the stalks).
Mix the couscous up with a fork, then stir in the tomato puree until well coated. Add all the chopped vegetables and herbs and mix well.
Stir in the oil and the lemon zest and juice, then season to how you like it.
Serve as a side with grilled meat or fish or eat it on its own if you want a light meal or snack.
