How to Make Mushroom Couscous With Moroccan Flavors
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms, 1/2 medium onion (finely chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the mushrooms are tender and slightly browned.
- Pour in 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option), 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, and a pinch of saffron threads. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of couscous. Cover the saucepan and let stand for 10 minutes, or until the couscous has absorbed all the liquid.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional).
- Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a light and satisfying vegetarian meal.
