COUSCOUS WITH OLIVES AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO



Couscous with Olives and Sun-Dried Tomato image

A delicate, flavorful dish that will satisfy vegans and carnivores alike! Inspired by my family's deep Coptic Orthodox Christian tradition, this is a great meal alternative during strict fasting times. It contains no animal products or fats, but has enough flavor and visual impact to make you feel like you're not sacrificing a thing! I hope you will enjoy this recipe. Add chicken or prawns to make this vegan dish a carnivorous delight!

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ¼ cups vegetable broth
1 ¼ cups water
2 cups pearl (Israeli) couscous
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
½ cup pine nuts
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, minced
½ cup sliced black olives
⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
1 cup vegetable broth
¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Bring 1 1/4 cup vegetable broth and water to a boil in a saucepan, stir in couscous, and mix in salt and black pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 8 minutes.

Stir black olives and sun-dried tomatoes into garlic mixture and cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often. Slowly pour in 1 cup vegetable broth and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until sauce has reduced, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Transfer couscous to a large serving bowl, mix with sauce, and serve topped with parsley and pine nuts.
