Ingredients

3 servings
  • 1 cup couscous
  • 1 1/2 cups water or vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (optional)
  • Pinch kosher salt (optional; omit if using broth)

Steps

  1. In a medium pot, bring the water or broth to a boil. Once it’s boiling, if you're using olive oil or butter or salt, add now.

  2. Add the couscous to the boiling water. Stir to make sure it's evenly distributed.

  3. Immediately remove pot from heat and cover tightly with a lid. Let sit off the heat, covered, for 5-10 minutes, until the couscous has absorbed all of the liquid.

  4. With a fork, fluff up the couscous to separate the grains.
