    This was our first time trying couscous and we liked it a lot. Served it with kabobs and grilled vegetables and it made for a nice light meal.

    A simple side dish with a wonderful flavor. I did add some lemon juice, some spiced butter "Spiced Butter (Niter Kebbeh)", peanuts and hot chili powder! served with "Beef Stewed in Red Pepper Paste" and "Ugandan Matoke". Thanks for a great dish! ZWT4 travelling through Africa with my Babes.
