Couscous Cakes

What to have with dinner? Potatoes? Rice? Noodles? Couscous! I remember seeing this recipe in the newest issue (#84) of Everyday Food and it sounded interesting.


COUSCOUS CAKES

2 1/4 cups cooked couscous

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

course salt and pepper


In a bowl stir together all ingredients. Heat 3 Tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick pan. Press into 1/4 cup patties (I used my mini burger press and it worked great). Cook until golden and crisp 3-4 minutes, turning once. Drain on papertowels. Serve




RATINGS:
Heather - 10 - "I REALLY LOVE the crunchy edges"
Brad - 10 - "Way better than the last couscous"

NOTE:
We will DEFINATELY have this again.
