MOROCCAN COUSCOUS



Moroccan Couscous image

This easy Moroccan couscous recipe with raisins and pinenuts is a fast, flavorful, versatile side dish to serve with chicken or lamb.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Side Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup pine nuts (or swap pistachios or slivered almonds)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (use coconut oil or vegan butter to make vegan)
1 small shallot (chopped)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
1 cup whole wheat couscous
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil (use the good stuff here!)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the pine nuts in a single layer on an ungreased, rimmed baking sheet. Toast in the oven until fragrant and lightly golden, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Keep an eye on them and DO NOT WALK AWAY during the last few minutes to make sure those precious pine nuts do not burn. Immediately transfer them to a bowl to stop their cooking and to make sure the hot pan doesn't burn them once they are out of the oven.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 3 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the salt, pepper, and cumin and cook for 30 seconds.
  • Pour in the broth. Increase the heat to high and bring it to a boil. As soon as the liquid begins to boil, remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the couscous, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes.
  • With a fork, fluff up the couscous. Add the raisins, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, and toasted pine nuts to the pot, then stir the ingredients together to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Enjoy hot.

PERFECT COUSCOUS



Perfect Couscous image

Couscous isn't a grain, as some people may think - it's actually a type of pasta made from durum wheat and shaped like a grain. The couscous you have in your pantry is most likely instant couscous that's been steamed and dried so it cooks very quickly, for a fast and easy side dish or base for a salad or bowl. Look for whole wheat couscous in your supermarket; it cooks in the same time as the regular variety and has all the virtues of whole wheat pasta. This recipe makes a big batch for make-ahead meal prep but is easily halved.

Categories     side-dish

Time 10m

Yield about 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups water or low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups regular or whole wheat couscous

Steps:

  • Combine the water or broth, olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous and immediately remove from the heat. Cover and let sit 5 minutes.
  • Fluff the couscous thoroughly with a fork (the more you fluff, the more separate and light the grains will be). Season with salt and pepper. If you are making the couscous ahead, spread while hot on a baking sheet lined with parchment to stop the cooking as it cools. Once cool, refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days.
