COUSCOUS YUM!

Today we are going to cook delicious Couscous Morroccan style!

Attention: IT IS SUITABLE FOR VEGANS! ;)

Let's get down to business!!;)

For 3-4 portions we will need 15 minutes time and:

• 250 g Couscous
• 1 large sweet red pepper
• 1 large onion
• half the tin of sweet corn
• about 20 pitted black olives
• black pepper
• olive oil and oil for frying
• butter (if you're not vegan)
• salt
• friends to share the yam yam with!:)

How to cook:

1. First of all put 1/4 liter (o.44 pints) of water, 1 Tbs of olive oil and 1 tsp of salt to boil in a BIG pot. Don't put the couscous in the pot yet!!
2. Put a frying pan with oil in it on the cooker to get hot.
3. Peel the onion and chop it up but not too small.
4. The oil should be hot by now, throw the onion in the frying pan!
5. Chop up sweet pepper and add to the onion.
6. If the water is boiling now, take the pot away from the cooker and carefully put the couscous in the water constantly stirring it.
7. Leave couscous for 2-3 minutes.
8. Cut the olives in rings and add them and sweet corn in the frying pan with onion and pepper.
9. Add 2-3 haselnut sized portions of butter (2 Tbs olive oil if you are vegan) to the couscous and stirr it with a folk (helps to get rid of lumps).
10. Put couscous back on the cooker and leave on low heat for 2 minutes.
11. It's black pepper turn now! Add it to the frying veg, use a lot, it needs to be spicy!
12. When the vegetables are ready mix them with the couscous and ENJOY IT HOT OR COLD!!!

TRICKS: Also tastes very nice with nutmeg and paprika. The secret of tasty couscous is to use vegetables of different colour. You can add any veg you prefer, but remember that it should be crunchy! Take red (pepper, carrot, tomato), yellow(pepper, sweet corn), green(olives, celery, spring onions, leek) and black (olives) veggies and make it colourful!!! Experiment with colours and tell me about your success or mistakes!!
