LEMON INFUSED COUSCOUS PEARLS
Provided by Mila
Number Of Ingredients 7
Steps:
- Heat small pot with a tablespoon of butter, 1 shallot and the zest of half a lemon.
- Over medium heat, we are going to melt the butter and let the butter get infused with the flavors of the shallot and the lemon zest. Give this about 3 minutes. Again, you are sweating the aromatics not browning them.
- Throw in a cup of your Israel couscous and toss everything together, ensuring your couscous is covered by the shallot and butter mixture. Essentially you are toasting them a bit. Do this for about 2 minutes.
- Pour in 1 and 1/4 cups of chicken broth, stock or water. I find the chicken stocks and broths give it a more savory flavor. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered for 10 minutes.
- Fluff with a fork. This will ensure you have light and fluffy individual grains. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese and mix with a fork. Taste for seasoning.
- Serve in a bowl with some more lemon zest, chopped parsley and nice shredding of Parmesan cheese on 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.
TOASTED ISRAELI COUSCOUS WITH VEGETABLES AND LEMON-BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Heat large saute pan on grates of the grill over medium heat. Add couscous and toast until lightly golden brown.
- Bring 6 cups of water to a boil over high heat, add 1 tablespoon salt and toasted couscous and cook until al dente. Drain well and place in a large bowl. Add grilled vegetables, olives, basil, and vinaigrette and toss until combined; season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving or cover and refrigerate.
- Whisk shallot, juice, zest, vinegars, and salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified.
ISRAELI COUSCOUS WITH PANCETTA, SPINACH, RAISINS, AND LEMON
Steps:
- In a small bowl, cover the raisins with hot water and set aside to soften. In a medium skillet over medium-low heat, cook the pancetta, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 14 minutes, then set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the skillet, add the oil, return the skillet to medium-low heat, and heat until the oil shimmers. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until light golden and crisp, about 5 minutes, then set aside on a paper towel-lined plate. Add the red pepper flakes and thyme to the skillet and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 40 seconds. Off the heat, whisk in the lemon juice, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste. Meanwhile, bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon salt and the couscous, return to a boil, adjust heat to medium, and cook until al dente, about 6 minutes. Drain couscous, transfer it to a very large bowl, add the thyme-lemon dressing, and toss to coat. Drain the raisins and add them and the reserved pancetta, and toss. Add about half the spinach and toss (the spinach will wilt), then repeat with the remaining spinach. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary, sprinkle with the garlic, and serve at once.
