- Over medium heat, add garlic and sauté until golden brown.
- Add dry couscous to oil and garlic. Stir to coat with oil and lightly brown. Add salt.
- Add ¾ cup very hot water.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until couscous absorbs all of the water, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

We wanted to love this but I'm sorry to say that we were disappointed. This was an expensive recipe (berries and salmon are very expensive here) and the chile sauce overpowered everything so that it was the only flavor that really came through. You really can't taste any berry flavors and you can't taste the salmon. It was also too salty for us and we used reduced-sodium soy sauce. Sorry :(
