What on earth is Israeli Couscous? Not available in Denmark, so I used just plain old couscous from my neighborhood supermarket and it worked out just fine. I love asparagus and any new way of using them is also fine. -
Perfect for me since what I had on hand was fresh asparagus and israeli couscous. I added a Tbsp of parsley pesto I had on hand and it was awesome. So delicious I burned my tongue because I wasn't patient enough to let it cool down a bit.
