Peach Couscous

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I just made this one up for my lunch and thought it was worth writing down. It's a sort of Persian-Moroccan fusion, basically a Moroccanized khoresht. used the Trader Joe's whole wheat couscous, which is very high fiber and made the whole thing marginally healthier. The couscous-cooking process here is adapted from Claudia Roden's method, and yields reliably fluffy, separate grains.
