Ingredients
-
1 cup corn couscous
-
2 cups of milk
-
1/2 cup sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1 teaspoon vanilla essence (optional)
-
Cinnamon powder (optional, for sprinkling)
-
Water (to hydrate the couscous)
-
Fresh fruit (such as banana, strawberries or kiwi) for garnish
Preparation mode
- Start by hydrating the corn couscous. Place the couscous in a bowl and add enough water to cover it. Let it rest for about 10 minutes or until the couscous has absorbed the water and is soft.
- While the couscous is hydrating, put the milk in a pan and place over medium heat. Add sugar, salt and vanilla extract (if using). Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- When the couscous is ready, drain the excess water and add it to the pan with the sweetened milk. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the couscous has absorbed the milk and the mixture has thickened. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let the sweet couscous cool slightly.
- Transfer the sweet couscous to individual bowls or a large bowl. Cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- When serving, sprinkle a little cinnamon powder on top and decorate with fresh cut fruit, such as banana, strawberries or kiwi.
- Serve the sweet couscous chilled. You can also add other ingredients, such as shredded coconut or chopped nuts, for more flavor and texture.
