This Golden Couscous seasoned with Ras el Hanout is the perfect simple and quick side dish for BBQs and potlucks! It's flavorful and everyone will love it!
Heat the water for the couscous in a large pot, add in the salt and ras el hanout.
Once the water is boiling, take the pot off the stovetop and add in the couscous and put the lid back on (the couscous will be ready in a minute or two).
Heat a large pan with the canola oil and cook the onions until soft and browned.
To the couscous, add the caramelized onions, chopped parsley, and lemon juice. Stir to combine. You can serve this dish either warm or cold.
Notes
*If you don't have any ras el hanout at home and you don't want to buy it, you can also use curry powder or turmeric (1/4 teaspoon) to make golden couscous, although it won't taste the same.
