Couscous con Verdura
Couscous with Vegetables

3 cups boiling water
1 1/2 cups instant couscous
2/3 cup finely diced carrot
2/3 cup finely diced onion
2/3 cup finely diced zucchini
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until it starts to
foam. Add the carrots and onions, season them lightly with salt and pepper
and cook, stirring occasionally, until it softens, about 4 minutes. Stir
in the zucchini and cook for 2 additional minutes. Remove from heat.
Place the couscous in a heatproof bowl and pour the boiling water over it.
Add the sauteed vegetables, stir well with a fork and cover the bowl
tightly. Let stand until the couscous is softened and the water is
absorbed, about 5 minutes. Remove the cover and fluff with a fork. Season
to taste with salt and pepper and serve hot. Serves 6.
