Add the Israeli couscous to the boiling broth, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is tender.
Noin 10 min
Kokin vinkki: Do not overcook the couscous; it should be al dente.
3
Remove the couscous from the heat and let it cool for 15 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Noin 15 min
