Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 This does look good, and I love couscous, too!! Marilyn Daub mcdaub " My Cats Knead Me!!! " Vanceburg, KY - Beth Renzetti Thursday, May 18, 2006 1:00 PM Curried couscous... ...for lack of a better name. I made this last night & it came out fabulous. Looks good, too. 1TB olive oil 1TB butter 1 chopped onion 1tsp salt 1/2c dried cranberries 1TB curry powder 1c vegetable broth 1c couscous 2c fresh baby spinach Melt butter & oil. Saute onion. Add salt, cranberries & curry. Stir until onion is softened. Add broth & bring to a boil. Stir in couscous. Remove from heat. Cover & let stand 4 minutes. Stir in spinach. Cover & let stand another 2 minutes. This warms the spinach but doesn't cook it. Barely even wilts it. Stir & enjoy. Serves 4. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Ahah! And you know my weakness for anything curried ;-) (Btw, I just happen to know another list you are on - ahem - which would like to receive this curried dish from you. How about it?)

Beth Thanks, Beth ;-) And if anyone likes it a little spicier (someone always does) they can add a little more of the cayenne that would be present in the curry powder you use. I note that the completed dish can be seen here on Beth's personal blog: http://lactosefreefood.blogspot.com/ It looks wonderful!
