Couscous with vegetables and meat
Description
Today I suggest preparing couscous with vegetables and meat. This dish tastes somewhat similar to pilaf, but is more delicate. You can use almost any type of meat: lamb, chicken, rabbit, pork, or goat. I'm using beef today. Feel free to combine vegetables according to your taste—add or omit as you prefer. This dish is aromatic and very delicious; I'm sure you'll love it! Give it a try.
