Steps:
- Place the butter in a medium saucepan and melt over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the carrot, onion and cinnamon and stir to coat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add the couscous and raisins and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-6 minutes to "toast" the couscous. Add the broth and salt and stir. Once bubbling (this happened right away for me), cover the pan with a lid and remove from heat. Let the pan sit, covered, for about 8 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Add the orange zest, orange juice, almonds, parsley, and black pepper (to taste). Stir together and fluff again before serving.

Steps:
- 1 Place the raisins in a small bowl and add enough boiling water to cover them. Let the raisins sit in the water until they plump and soften, about 5 to 7 minutes. 2 Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large saucepan and add the olive oil, salt, and pepper. 3 Stir in the couscous, making sure that all of it is wet. Cover and set the saucepan aside in a warm place until the couscous is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. 4 Stir in the raisins, toasted almonds or pine nuts, and parsley. Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil over the top.
ISRAELI COUSCOUS WITH RAISINS
Steps:
- Cook 2 cups Israeli couscous as the label directs; drain. Saute 1 diced onion in olive oil with a pinch of cinnamon until golden, 5 minutes. Add 1 cup golden raisins and 2 tablespoons water and cook 2 minutes; toss with the couscous and a handful each of sliced almonds and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
COUSCOUS WITH GOLDEN RAISINS
Israeli couscous has larger granules and a chewier texture than the regular variety; look for it at health-food stores, Middle Eastern shops, and many supermarkets. Serve with Shrimp in Saffron Broth from "Martha Stewart's Dinner at Home."

This is a slightly sweet recipe of middle eastern origin. You can add more sugar if you like, but for those wanting to cut down on sugar and fat, this is a great way to indulge in a bit of sweet with an ethnic flair.
