MARILU'S COUS COUS DESSERT



Marilu's Cous Cous Dessert image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 2h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups/457 g cooked cous cous, recipe follows
2 tablespoons/30 ml butter, melted
2 tablespoons/28 g cane sugar
2 tablespoons/28 g pine nuts
2 tablespoons/28 g raisins
2 tablespoons/28 g almonds, toasted
2 tablespoons/28 g hazelnuts, toasted
3 tablespoons/44 ml lukewarm water
Icing sugar (confectioners' sugar), for sprinkling
Dough
1 cup flour
Water, as needed
3 cups/685 g coarsely ground durum wheat
11/2 cups/352 ml water
1 teaspoon/5 g salt
1 teaspoon/5 g ground cinnamon
1/4 cup/58 ml extra-virgin olive oil
Zest of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Place the cooked cous cous, butter, sugar, pine nuts, raisins, almonds, hazelnuts, and water in a mixing bowl. Thoroughly combine all the ingredients. Cover the bowl and let rest for at least 1/2 an hour. Butter a ramekin to prevent sticking. Firmly pack some cous cous mixture in the ramekin and invert onto an individual dessert plate, so that the form of the cous cous is released from the ramekin. Sprinkle with icing sugar. Repeat for other individual plates and serve.
  • For the dough: Cous cous is cooked in a special double boiler called a couscousiera. A makeshift couscousiera can be made by placing a colander over a similar-size pot and sealing the two together with simple dough to prevent steam from escaping. To make the dough: Combine 1 cup flour with enough water to create dough. Roll the dough into a long rope and use as a seal.
  • For the cous cous: Place half the durum wheat in a large bowl. Add splashes of water, salt, cinnamon, and extra-virgin olive oil, while stirring/raking the durum wheat in a circular motion with your hand. You should use approximately 1/2 the quantities of water, salt, cinnamon and extra-virgin olive oil at this point. Continue working in a circular motion, constantly stirring to moisten the grains evenly. Rub the mixture between your hands to remove any lumps that may form. If the mixture becomes too wet, add some more durum wheat, if it becomes too dry, add some more water. The mixture should form into small pellets. If you have not achieved small pellets, rub and rake some more.
  • Add the remaining durum wheat, salt, cinnamon and extra-virgin olive oil and repeat the process above. Transfer the cous cous to a colander and embed the zest of 1 lemon in the cous cous. Rest the colander over a pot of boiling water. Let the cous cous steam for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Serve with seafood, stewed meats and/or vegetables, or use as a base for Marilu's cous cous dessert recipe follows.

MAFTOUL WITH CHICKEN - MIDDLE EASTERN (ISRAELI COUS COUS)



Maftoul With Chicken - Middle Eastern (Israeli Cous Cous) image

Maftoul is basically very large couscous. You can use Lebanese couscous, Israeli couscous, Berkukis etc for this beautiful dish. Easy to make!

Provided by Um Safia

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 cups chickpeas (tinned)
5 cups maftoul couscous
8 pieces chicken, of your choice (or a whole chicken portioned)
4 onions, sliced into semi circles
1 cup chopped tomato (fresh or tinned)
1 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon sumac
1/2 teaspoon ground fenugreek
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon coriander powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
salt and pepper
olive oil
2 pints water

Steps:

  • Fry the spices and onion in a little olive oil. Add the chicken and seal well.
  • Bring 1/2 liter of water to the boil. Place maftoul in large bowl and pour over enough to cover the maftoul. After 10 seconds, drain off water and mix in 1/2 tsp salt before placing maftoul in the steamer.
  • Pour tomatoes over chicken and add salt & pepper to taste. Cover with water (water should come about 2" over the ingredients). At this point you can add a chicken stock cube if you wish. Cover and cook for 45 mins on medium heat.
  • If you have a large couscousier or double steamer you can cook the sauce in the bottom and maftoul in the top which is preferable as the maftoul absorbs the flavours --.
  • Remove the chicken from the sauce and place on a baking sheet in the oven (180 degrees c) for 10 minutes to brown off and dry out.
  • Whilst chicken is in the oven, add the chickpeas to the sauce and cook gently for 10 minutes.
  • Check seasoning. Take 8 bowls, divide the maftoul between them. Pour over some sauce then top with the chicken pieces.
