I made this to accompany my Dukkah Chicken (#388664), but it would be good with a variety of mediterranean dishes.
Ingredients:
2 cups couscous
2 cups water
2 (420 g) cans diced tomatoes
1 onion, finely chopped
1 -2 teaspoon minced garlic
5 -10 mushrooms, quartered and sliced
1/2 red capsicum, deseeded, quartered, and sliced
1/2 yellow pepper, deseeded, quartered, and sliced
1/2 green capsicum, deseeded, quartered, and sliced
1 -2 teaspoon powdered stock
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon rosemary
1 teaspoon oregano
Directions:
1. Boil the water in a small saucepan.
2. While it is boiling, fry the onion with the garlic, and a splash of olive oil.
3. Add the tomato, mushrooms, capsicum, stock, and herbs to the pan, reduce heat, and simmer.
4. Once the water has boiled, add the cous cous, and immediately remove from the heat.
5. Let the cous cous stand, covered, for about 10 minutes, then tip it into the pan with the tomato mixture.
6. Turn up the heat, and stir it through for two or three minutes.
7. Serve.
