Kyo no tema, kore des! Kyo no tema……COUSCOUS!
Allez Cuisine! Bang a gong we are on!
After amateur night yesterday, tonight I planned a
restaurant-quality couscous dinner....but it turned out quite rustic round the edges.
My plan was to buy couscous, some lamb, a bunch of my favourite ingredients and throw them all together to see what happened. Fairly good things happened but boy it was a bit hectic in the kitchen. I fried up some onion and capsicum with cumin and turmeric. Then I fried up some bacon in one pan. In another pan the lamb. In another pan the pine nuts. And a pot for the couscous. I, of course, burnt the pine nuts.

I put some more pine nuts in a pan. Then I chopped up some olives and parsley and mixed all the tasty bits through the couscous. Then I burnt myself on the lamb pan. Then, of course, I burnt the pine nuts again.
And that’s it. The couscous battle is O-VAH! Who takes it?
Whose cuisine reins supreme?

Biggs did pretty well with this dinner. It's a bit unfortunate that it was in direct competition with my awesome couscous - that's a no-win situation for her.
The olives were savoury and excellent. Pine nuts would have been a genius addition.
