Recipes Side Dish Curry Side Dish Recipes Vegetable Curry Couscous 4.0 (6) 5 Reviews 3 Photos A variety of veggies make this interesting side dish versatile. I like to serve chicken in an apple, onion, and curry sauce over the top and sprinkle it with flaked coconut. Can also be made with quinoa, just adjust cooking time.

Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a boil, and stir in the carrot, tomatoes, couscous, raisins, and currants. Season with curry powder, turmeric, salt, and black pepper; bring the mixture back to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and allow to cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Let the couscous stand covered for 5 minutes, and fluff with a fork. Sprinkle with sliced almonds. Cook's Notes Please add curry in half-teaspoon increments to achieve desired flavor and heat. Most couscous will cook in five minutes' time. I also make this using quinoa on occasion.
