ingredients
- 29.58 ml olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 29.58 ml fresh ginger, finely minced
- 236.59 ml orange juice, freshly squeezed from about 3 oranges, strained to remove pulp

- 255.14 g couscous (about 1-1/2 cups)

directions
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a large saucepan with a tight lid. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft but not browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the orange juice and simmer until the liquid has nearly evaporated, about 10 minutes, stirring as needed to prevent the juice from caramelizing. Add 2 cups water and bring to a boil.
- Remove from the heat, add the butter, couscous, and salt. Stir, and cover. Let stand for 15 minutes. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Stir in the almonds, herbs, and orange zest. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
