An electric skillet or griddle works well for this recipe because there's more room for the cakes. Otherwise, use a nonstick skillet, and cook in batches. They're delicious plain or served with marinara sauce. Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups water |
1 cup uncooked couscous |
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided |
1 cup minced red onion |
1 cup minced red bell pepper |
1/2 cup minced green bell pepper |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 cup (4 ounces) crumbled feta cheese |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup egg substitute |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan; stir in couscous. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
2. Place 1 teaspoon oil in an electric skillet; heat to 375°. Add onion, bell peppers, and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Combine couscous, onion mixture, cheese, and remaining ingredients in a large bowl; stir well.
3. Place 1/2 teaspoon oil in skillet; heat to 375°. Place 1/3 cup couscous mixture for each of 4 portions into skillet, shaping each portion into a 3-inch cake in the skillet. Cook 6 minutes or until golden brown, turning cakes carefully after 3 minutes. Repeat procedure with remaining oil and couscous mixture.
