Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups couscous
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 1/4 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup good olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup small-diced carrots

  • 1/2 cup dried currants or raisins
  • 1/4 cup blanched, sliced almonds

    Need to add my comments to the chorus. This is just great. Fixed it for a Labor Day diner tonight with grilled lamp chops. I am going to have problems keeping from eating it before the guests arrive! Did use only 1/2 tsp salt and pine nuts.
