Steps:
- Place the butter in a medium saucepan and melt over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the carrot, onion and cinnamon and stir to coat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add the couscous and raisins and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-6 minutes to "toast" the couscous. Add the broth and salt and stir. Once bubbling (this happened right away for me), cover the pan with a lid and remove from heat. Let the pan sit, covered, for about 8 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Add the orange zest, orange juice, almonds, parsley, and black pepper (to taste). Stir together and fluff again before serving.
