Couscous hack- Easy, 10 minute -Couscous
3 cups coarse semolina
1/2 c. oil
1 flat tsp. salt
About 3 cups water
Put the semolina in a bowl. Make a hole in the middle and pour in the oil.
Microwave for 3 minutes.
Take out and fluff with a fork, making sure the semolina is well- coated with oil.
Pour 1 cup water around the semolina outward, as far as possible from the center of the bowl.
Microwave for 3 minutes.
Take out and fluff. Add the salt and mix
Repeat this step one more time (1 cup water / 3 minute microwave / fluffing)
Take out and taste it. If it’s not soft enough, repeat the process with some water (1/2 cup)
If there are chunks (I didn’t have any though it’s possible), use a couscous sieve or another to sift it.
