Couscous came from the North African cuisine. I just recently started cooking couscous and discovered that couscous is very versatile and simple to prepare. Couscous goes with about any main course and can be combined with all sorts of vegetables and spices. Most couscous sold in the grocery stores has already been pre-steamed, so preparation is very simple.
Ingredients:
1 cup of couscous or 1 package of 5.7 oz
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
1 medium tomato
1 spoon of olive oil
1 can of green peas
1 tablespoon of B.S. brandy
Preparation:
In a medium saucepan combine water and couscous. Bring to boil. After 2 -3 minutes lower to medium heat. Cut fresh tomatoes in small slices.
In medium skillet heat olive oil and add onions and garlic. Cook for 1 minute then add the tomatoes and green peas. Cook for 1 more minute and add the vegetables to the couscous.
Stir the vegetables in couscous. Wait for the couscous to be ready.
Add 1 tablespoon of B.S. brandy. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Wine Pairing: Gorelli Saperavi
