5 oz couscous

7 T hot water

4 green onions, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 T chopped parsley

2 oz toasted pine nuts, coarsely chopped

2 oz. ground almonds

finely grated lemon rind

1-2 eggs

S & P

Oil for frying

Sour cream for serving

 

BEETS

4 beets, cut into wedges

4 T olive oil

1 tsp Tabasco sauce

1 T lemon juice

 

DIRECTIONS:

1.    Place couscous in a bowl and add water; let stand 5 min. Mix the

ingredients for the beet dressing in a bowl.

2.    Fluff couscous, add remaining ingredients.

3.    Place by shaped teaspoonfuls into hot skillet about 2 minutes per side.

 

BEETS:

Preheat oven to 450F. Like a corning ware casserole with tin foil then parchment

paper. Place beets in centre. Drizzle with 1 T oil, season. Fold aluminum foil

over top and seal in beets. Bake at least 1 hour, check for doneness. Allow to

cook 45 minutes before dressing and serving. The great thing about these is that

you can make the beets the day before and just keep them in the fridge until an

hour or so before serving - they're best at room temperature.
