Couscous



Ingredients:
Packet of Israeli couscous
Spices
Oil

Rather then just making couscous the way it says on the packet, add spices - it makes it so much more interesting!

I add salt, garlic powder, paprika and pepper, but you can add any spices you like.

Put the dry couscous in a pot and a drizzle of oil (can use spray oil) and add the spices. Mix well. Fry over for a couple of minutes before adding hot water (can skip this step if you want).


Add enough hot water to cover couscous and a bit more. If you have fried it over for a couple of minutes first be careful when you add the hot water it will splatter a bit and make some noise...
Bring to the boil and turn the heat down until it is simmering and cook covered for 8 minutes stirring occasionally. Once cooking time is up, turn off heat and leave covered pot to sit for 1-2 minutes before serving.

Great served hot or room temperature it also tastes good!

Et Voila!
