How do you cook cous cous?

Answer 1

1. Gather the ingredients you will need to cook your couscous: a saucepan, bowl, cup measure, 1 cup couscous, 1 1/4 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and a dish towel.
2. Measure out 1 1/4 cups of water and then add the water and salt to a saucepan.
3. Heat the water until it is boiling.
4. Place the boiling water and couscous together in a bowl.
5. Stir the ingredients together.
6. Cover the bowl with a dish towel and let it sit for 5 minutes.
7. Remove the dish towel and then fluff the couscous with a fork.

Check your package. If you use Israeli or Pearl cous cous you have to boil it for a few minutes more like pasta.

you pop it in the oven for 24 hours until the oven explodes, and when it's ready you either scoff it up or smash it onto someones face.

Hi, you don't have to cook it, you just shake some into a bowl and cover with boiling water, put a tea towel over the bowl to keep the steam in, and leave for about 10mins. When ready, you can then flavour with a knob of butter, maybe some roasted vegetables thrown in, but we have recently been buying ready flavoured ones - i can highly recommend Ainsley Harriets Moroccan Medley, don't know if its avail US, as we are UK.
