WHOLE WHEAT COUSCOUS WITH BODI AND MUSHROOMS
Ingredients
1½ cups Israeli whole wheat couscous, cooked and drained
2 – 3 cups fresh sliced mushrooms
2 cups cut bodi (1-inch pieces)
2 small tomatoes, diced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tbsp fresh green seasoning
1 tsp all purpose seasoning
½ tsp pepper sauce or red pepper flakes
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 oz butter
1 – 2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper
Directions
- Heat the oil and butter in a large saute pan over medium high heat.
- When the butter is melted add the mushrooms and sauté for 2 – 3 minutes. Add the bodi and mix into the mushrooms. Cook for 1 – 2 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, green seasoning and garlic, mixing well into the vegetable mix. Season with the all purpose seasoning, pepper sauce, a little salt and pepper. Cook for a few more minutes to allow the bodi to soften.
- Add the couscous to the vegetables in parts mix well after each addition. Mix in the chicken stock, reduce heat to low, cover and let cook for 3 – 5 minutes after all the couscous has been incorporated. You may need to add a little more liquid depending on how quickly the couscous absorbs the liquid and cooks through.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve.
