Ideal for adults and children, it is recommended above all for those on a diet, but also for gourmets!
Ingredients for 2 people:
- 300 g coral green beans (cut into squares)
- 150 g of couscous
- 300 g of chopped tomatoes
- half a large onion
- 2 tablespoons of extra olive oil
- 2 cups of water
- 2 pinches of salt
- 1 pinch of turmeric
Clean and cut the onion in two, take one half and make many thin slices, put them in the pressure cooker and brown them - over medium heat - with two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil.
When the onion is well softened, add the chopped tomato, the salt and stir for a couple of minutes; then add the green beans cut into squares, pour a cup of water, mix well and close with the lid.
Let it cook for about 20 minutes from the start of the hiss of the valve (if you don't have a pressure cooker, the cooking time is about 40 minutes), then turn off the heat and let out all the steam.
At this point all that remains is to add a cup of water and pour the couscous (the pre-cooked one you find at the supermarket), mix well and wait for the semolina to swell properly (about 7 minutes, but better if you follow the instructions written on the packaging of your couscous).
Once cooked, add a pinch of turmeric, mix and serve!
