Now that Mr. Swami is launched on his 3-day boys-only trip with our DS it is time for the Swami to enjoy couscous!!! Mr. Swami HATES couscous. He has trouble breathing just knowing there are couscous in the house. So when he goes on vacay I break out the lovely little granules!
I like to dice up half an onion and a chicken breast and saute them in a little butter with a spice mix I have that is mostly red pepper, thyme, allspice and turmeric. I add a bunch of raisins on top and let them plump, then throw on a box of Near East Mediterranean Curry flavor couscous with their spice packet and boiling water. Let it sit covered for 6-8 minutes and voila! Delicious!
Mr. Swami also hates tapioca. So tomorrow I am off the Trader Joe's to get some of their lovely, pre-made tapioca pudding. Also delish. And he'll never know! Mwahaha!!! (Well, unless he reads this...)

When Mr. Fro is out of town I make all the things he doesn't like to eat, too. Fish, especially.
I might steal your couscous recipe.
Hurray for couscous. I fed some to some boys from out west once (Mormon Missionaries) and they had no idea what it was. I need to use your recipe. Sounds delicious.
Couscous would be a good name for a pet.
