Curried Couscous


2 Teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 garlic clove - minced ( I used the paste - easier!)
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 cup of couscous
3/4 cup veggie broth
3 tablespoons raisins

***************************

Heat oil in skillet until hot - cook onion with salt to taste, until browned lightly. Reduce heat to med. and add garlic paste, curry powder and cook, stirring, until garlic paste is golden.
Remove from heat.

In saucepan, bring veggie broth to boil. Stir in raisins and couscous and let stand, approx 5 minutes. Fluff and transfer to bowl. Stir in onion mixture and salt and pepper to taste.

***********************

NB: I added more curry powder to the veggie broth as it was cooking and I also added dried cranberries and blueberries along with toasted pinenuts and slivered almonds. When I served it, I added mini tomatoes and feta cheese to it also.
