Oh I had a oops moment in that I caramilized the onions but didn't realize I was supposed to add the sugar, vinegar and thyme mix to the onions until I added my caramilized onion to the cooked couscous - o'kay a quick zap in the microwave to melt the sugar and stirred through the couscous as a dressing and we had a delicious side to our recipe #197696 and some steamed silverbeat fresh from the garden. thank you katew for a great recipe.Reply
