I made this recipe last night to go with pork chops. We loved it. I used parsley since my cilantro isnt growiing yet but very good. Thank you for sharing your recipe with me.

*Reviewed for Zaar World Tour 3* Couscous doesn't get any easier than this! Nice and easy to prepare with great flavours. An easy versatile side dish. Thanks for another great recipe

How have I forgotten to rate this? I've made it many times.

I love the flavor. The texture can be "too soft" for me. Which I combat by adding a handful of chickpeas or pine nuts.

Great side dish!
