Ingredients:
1 package couscous
1 tsp turmeric
2 medium onions, chopped
1 cup finely shredded cabbage
1 medium turnip, peeled and diced
1 medium yellow summer squash,
1 chopped in 1/4 pieces
1 1/2 cup cooked garbanzo beans
1 1/2 cup diced ripe tomatoes
1 tsp freshly grated ginger root
1/2 tsp each: ground cumin,
1 coriander, turmeric
1 water as needed
Instructions:
Prepare couscous according to package, stirring in couscous when you fluff
it. Or try substituting brown rice. I was out of couscous last week, so I
used brown rice with turmeric and it was wonderful! Saute onions until
tender in a large saucepan or soup pot using your favorite oil substitute.
Add remaining ingredients except water. Cover and reduce heat to low.
Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 min. Add water as needed to
produce a moist, but not soupy stew. Serve over couscous or brown rice.
To make some of this easier, I used canned chickpeas. You could probably
use canned tomatoes as well. One ingredient I wouldn't dare leave out is
the fresh ginger root !! I store my ginger root in the freezer wrapped in
plastic. When I want to use some, I take out a chunk, peel as much as I
want to use and grate, it grates much easier when frozen.
