1001 nights in Platyz

Tonight we wanted to try an Arabic style sweet couscous, what we once tasted in a Czech tea house, "cajovna". It's really easy and fast to make and the spices give a nice, exotic flavor to it.


Couscous Mandarin



ingredients:
150ml water
50g sugar
250g couscous
50g butter
500g curd
250g mandarins (sweetened, put of can)
1 tsp cinnamon
50g nuts
50g raisins

preperation:
First boil the water, take the pot from the heat and let the couscous stay in the water for 2 minutes. Then mix it with 50g butter and wait 3 more minutes. Add 250g of curd, small mandarin pieces, the raisins and spices and mix again properly. Serve it in small cups with the rest of the curd, nuts and cinnamon on top. Suitable while drinking tea or smoking water pipe :)
