I love this version of couscous, the Harissa gives it a great kick! I ususally use two tsp of Harissa but if you are not familiar with it use only one.
Ingredients:
350 g couscous
600 ml hot vegetable stock
1 teaspoon harissa
75 g butter
100 g whole blanched almonds
85 g pine nuts
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped
3 tablespoons coriander, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
Directions:
1. Plase couscous in a bowl. Mix stock and harissa and pour over the couscous. Leave to stand until the stock has been absorbed (about 8 mins).
2. Fluff up the couscous and tip into a steamer basket. Steam for 10 minutes.
3. Meanwhile heat the butter and fry almonds for 2 minutes Add pine nuts and cayenne and fry for another 2 minutes remove and add fresh herbs.
4. Tip out couscous and top with the nut mixture. Scatter over chilli flakes.
