Directions
Algerian Stew for Couscous, This is our family’s traditional recipe, usually served with plain steamed couscous As it takes quite a while, it is always a big event, everyone loves it! This is my first recipe, so be kind!! NOTE: If you cannot find Ras el Hanout in the stores, there are some recipes here on zaar! It is a mixture made of cumin, coriander, cinnamon, pepper and other spices It can be omitted in this recipe, just go a little heavier on the other spices mentioned and add a pinch of cinnamon!, I usually put meat for 1 hour, then add carrots and potatoes for ~40 min, then add zuchini for 20min (1 hour is too much for zucchini and will make them melt I also prefer green over squash) You can also add turnips with potatoes and carrots (my american wife loves them) , Thank you Halalmom for such an easy to put together couscous stew recipe I added a traditional Egyptian spice mix as I haven’t come across the Ras El Hanout here My family prefer chicken with couscous and loved the delicious sauce I added a good handful of raisins and waited for the raves This even tasted delicious for lunch the next day I steamed my Rose Blanche couscous, it turned out light and fluffy A truly authentic delicious meal I will certainly be making this again
