The DM and I thoroughly enjoyed this couscsous recipe and the <br/>dm would not believe that there was curry in it (a thing about my late DD making Vindaloo curries so the DM judged all curries by that measure and therefore if curry was mentioned she would not eat but we are slowly training her that not all curries are hot and this one hit the buttons and is helping that conversion). the only chane I made was to use sultanas for the raisins and as we don't care for mint used some fresh parsley from the garden and then kicked myself when I was eating as something was missing yes I forfot the lime juice but drizzled over and mixed in an perfecto, thank you herby, made for ZAAR Chef Alphabet Soup.
