Cooking grits couscous at home
I thought to post this recipe or not... But still decided, even if not going to cook the couscous themselves, then at least will have an idea on how it is prepared... I had a quirk to make it the most (well, if I decided something, necessarily it will make))), and after correspondence with Miriam (aunt of Mary cook), in which she gave advice on cooking, and after numerous viewings of videos on You Tube I finally decided... was Just curious what happens))) I can say that the couscous is still different from home... And honestly, the more cooking it will not, I will only buy ready, so problems are smaller and taste better... But, I now know how to do it Oriental woman))) Another tip from Miriam: it turns out that ready-made couscous (remaining) can be frozen and then reheated in the microwave and serve with soup meat, vegetable stews, etc. I Suggest to watch videos on cooking the couscous.

Ingredients

  • Semolina

    0.5 kg

  • Salt

    1 tsp

  • Vegetable oil

    0.25 cup

  • Water

Cooking

step-0
Mix the semolina with salt.
step-1
Then add vegetable oil.
step-2
Then to interfere, to hinder, to disturb, to oil around every grain.
step-3
Pour a little water and mix again and RUB to avoid lumps.
step-4
And a little water and grind.
step-5
Now on steam. How much? When the top layer is totally hot, i.e., couples shot a mixture of semolina. Cook for about 10 minutes.
step-6
To the grains fell through the holes in the steamer I put a cotton napkin.
step-7
Of course, close the lid.
step-8
Again dumped in a large bowl (or the bowl).
step-9
And break all the lumps with a wooden spoon is best.
step-10
To give a little to cool to be able to touch and again sprinkle water and grind, the water and grind. The lumps allowed! Again in pairs. Again 10 minutes. I cooked in three steps, the first two times - for ten minutes, the third time, fifteen minutes. Dump into a bowl and break up clumps. To try and if the grains still slightly hard, again sprinkle with water and to process and cook for a couple. So: you need to cook, not once, but in two or three divided doses, gradually saturating the grains of semolina moisture, and retaining its crispness. And try. The grains should be firm.
step-11
Another point. Even the most experienced hostess (they are already an endangered species, all buy ready, we have frozen any), it may happen that splashed a little more water than needed. The lumps are not broken. Then passed, wipe the whole lot through a sieve (do not sieve, grate this) and semolina again loose. I rubbed through a colander.
step-12
Eventually, grains of sound as transparent. Put prepared couscous on a dish, in the middle of doing recess.
step-13
And served with a vegetable or meat stew. I had chicken with vegetables Moroccan.
step-14
