Ingredients

1 cup low-sodium broth or water
Extra virgin olive oil
Kosher Salt
1 cup dry instant couscous (I used this couscous)
To Flavor (optional)
Pinch of cumin (or spice of your choice)
1 to 2 garlic clove (minced and sauteed in extra virgin olive oil)
2 green onions (chopped)
Fresh herbs to your liking (I used parsley and dill)

Steps:

In a saucepan, add broth or water. Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of kosher salt. Bring to a boil.
Now, toast the couscous. In a non-stick skillet or pan, heat about 1 to 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil. Add the couscous and toss around with a wooden spoon until golden brown. This is an optional step but can really adds a great nutty flavor.
Stir couscous in the boiled liquid quickly and immediately turn the heat off. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes or until couscous has completely absorbed the broth or water.
Uncover and fluff with a fork.
You can serve couscous plain, or mix in spices and herbs to give it more flavor. If you like, add in a pinch of cumin, sautéed garlic, chopped green onions, and fresh herbs or your choice. Enjoy!
