At this time, prepare the couscous in the traditional manner rinsing and steaming twice in the top of the couscousier while the stew cooks in the bottom.


Total cooking time for both the pasta and stew is 1 hour.


To serve, put the pasta in a large bowl and level it slightly.


Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the sauce over it.
