Couscous Crowns With Pistachios, Scallions, And Currants

Couscous Crowns With Pistachios, Scallions, And Currants


1. In a saucepan combine the butter and the broth, bring the liquid to a boil, and stir in the couscous.

2. Remove the pan from the heat, let the mixture stand, covered, for 5 minutes, and transfer it to a bowl.

3. Break up any lumps with a fork and stir in the currants, the scallion, the pistachios, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.

4. In a small bowl whisk together the lemon juice, the cinnamon, and the oil.

5. Toss the couscous mixture with the dressing and season it with salt and pepper.

6. Pack the mixture into four 3/4-cup timbales (or mold of your choice- I use ramekin or other serving size dish) and unmold the timbales/mold onto 4 plates.
