COUSCOUS WITH PEAS



Couscous with Peas image

This is one of very few traditional couscous dishes using one vegetable alone. Another is with fava beans. You can also mix peas and very young, tender fava beans together. As there is no broth, the grain needs plenty of butter (you could use vegetable or olive oil instead). Tiny young fresh peas are sold podded in packages in some supermarkets. Otherwise, frozen petits pois will do.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups couscous
2 cups warm water
1/2-1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4-6 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1/2-1 pound fresh peas or frozen petits pois

Steps:

  • Put the couscous in an oven dish and add the salted water gradually, stirring so that it gets absorbed evenly. After about 15 minutes, when the grain has become plump and almost tender, add the oil and rub the grain between your hands to air it and break up any lumps.
  • Heat the couscous through in a pan, covered with a lid, so that it steams. As it is a small quantity, it is all right to do it in a saucepan, but you must be careful not to let it burn. Add a drop of water if it seems too dry.
  • Cook the peas in salted water for minutes only, until they are just tender.
  • Before serving, break up any lumps in the couscous and stir in the butter and the peas.

COUSCOUS WITH PEAS AND PARMESAN



Couscous With Peas and Parmesan image

A simple, easy side dish. Perfect with fish or chicken. Cooks super fast.... note: After reading that this was coming out dry, I remade it to see what was wrong. I think it should be solved by increasing the broth to 1 and a half cups or even just 1 and one fourth. You can also add a little more broth after you remove it from heat and adjust to your taste.

COUSCOUS WITH PEAS & CARROTS



Couscous With Peas & Carrots image

An easy-to-make side dish that goes very well with chicken. I adapted this from Dancer's Curried Chicken and Couscous (which is a main dish) for nights when I'm not in the mood for rice or pasta, but need a whole grain and another veggie dish to go on the table. I use the Whole Foods frozen peas and carrots (the carrots are shredded, not coined). Sometimes I add curry and cumin to the broth before bringing it to a boil.
