MOROCCAN ground beef COUSCOUS recipe

MOROCCAN ground beef COUSCOUS recipe

Steamed couscous with Moroccan Ras el hanout and veggies.

The star in this dish is absolutely the Ras el hanout. This spice blend is so flavorsome and gives such an exotic touch to the couscous. You will love it!

It’s also one of the best dishes to cook when you’re in a hurry or don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Within 30 minutes you can turn this beauty on the table.

I remember making this couscous for my mama. She bought some Moroccan Ras el hanout and didn’t know what to do with it. So I tightened my apron and started cooking.

I was ready within 30 minutes and couscous turned out really great! We’ve been to Middle East before and this dish definitely took us back.

I used the Ras el hanout (in the glass jar) from the supermarket Albert Heijn, because they have a great spice blend. But I guess that any Ras el hanout of your liking will do.

Start cooking and enjoy!
