Steps:
- In a large skillet or saucepan, heat oil on medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring often, until they are transparent and begin to brown.
- Stir in the sliced almonds and continue to cook for a few minutes. The almonds will toast and start to brown as well.

- Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. After the 5 minutes, fluff the couscous with a fork.
