Serves/Makes: 6
Ready in: < 30 minutes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup finely diced carrot
- 2/3 cup finely diced onion
- 2/3 cup finely diced zucchini
- 1 1/2 cup instant couscous
- 3 cups boiling water
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the carrot and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft, about 4 minutes. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 more minutes. Remove the pan from heat. Add the couscous to a heatproof bowl. Pour the boiling water over the couscous. Add the cooked vegetables and mix well. Cover the bowl (use a lid from a pan, foil, or a dinner plate) and let stand until the couscous is soft and the water is absorbed, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the cover from the bowl and gently fluff the couscous with a fork. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve hot.
