- Put 1 cup of broth (or water) in a sauce pan. Add a small drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of kosher salt. Bring water to a boil.
- This is an optional step but can really make a difference in imparting flavor. Heat a little bit of extra virgin olive oil (about 1 to 2 tablespoon) in a non-stick skillet. Add the uncooked couscous and toss around, constantly, using a wooden spoon. You're looking for the couscous to gain a beautiful golden brown color (watch the couscous carefully, this will be quick).u003cimg alt=u0022Toasted couscous in skilletu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/how-to-cook-couscous-recipe-4.jpgu0022/u003e
- Stir the toasted couscous in the boiling water. Cover the sauce pan and remove from heat or turn the heat off immediately. Let the couscous sit undisturbed for about 10 minutes until it has absorbed all the water. Uncover and fluff with a fork. Taste and adjust salt to your liking.u003cimg alt=u0022Cooked couscous in saucepanu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/how-to-cook-couscous-recipe-6.jpgu0022/u003e
- You can absolutely serve your couscous plain at this point. Or, feel free to add a little seasoning of your choice and some fresh herbs. I added a pinch of ground cumin, chopped parsley, dill, and green onions. I also added a couple of garlic cloves that have been minced and sauteed in extra virgin olive oil. u003cbr/u003eOnce you add the flavor makers of your choice, give the couscous another toss to combine, and transfer to a serving platter. Enjoy! u003cimg alt=u0022couscous with fresh herbs and scallionsu0022 src=u0022https://www.themediterraneandish.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/how-to-cook-couscous-recipe-7.jpgu0022/u003e
