Tomato couscous
Recipe:
158. Tomato couscous
Source: Feast
Weird ingredients and substitutes: No garlic-infused oil, so just used regular extra-virgin olive oil.
Preparation: Halve tomatoes.
Cooking process: Cook tomatoes, add couscous and spices, boil water and leave for 5 minutes. That is too easy.
End result: I had made it for dinner to go with some leftover Thai chicken wraps (not regarded as Chinese food), but when we got to it, we found that the chicken wraps were sufficient, so all I managed to do was spoon out a bit for the photo display and then we had the couscous for lunch the next day.
I'm not sure if it was the sitting around, but when we ate it for lunch the next day, I found it to be quite bland, and added a lot of Tabasco sauce to mine.
Repeatability: No
Cost: I doubled the amounts to ensure that it would serve both of us. $4.
Mess: The saucepan just needed a soak to get all of the couscous off.
Special utensils: Nil.
