A quick side dish I make as an accompaniment to lamb curry or Indian style dal or chickpeas/chole. I also love having this dish all by itself for lunch. Ingredients:
1/2 cup couscous |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup frozen peas |
1/4 teaspoon cumin seed |
1/4 teaspoon turmeric |
1/2 tablespoon olive oil |
salt |
black pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring water to a boil. Remove from heat.
2. Add couscous and salt and cover for five minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a pan, warm olive oil on medium heat.
4. Add cumin seeds, turmeric powder, black pepper and peas and saute for two minutes.
5. Add to couscous and mix, fluffing with a fork.
6. Drizzle olive oil on top, if needed.
