: Moroccan Couscous with Vegetables and Meat

🍬 Tfaya (Sweet Caramelized Onions with Raisins)

🧺 Ingredients:

• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 1 cup raisins (golden or dark)
• 2 tbsp sugar (white or brown)
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1 tbsp butter or vegetable oil
• A pinch of salt
• Optional: 1/4 tsp ground ginger or saffron threads for extra aroma
• 1/2 cup water (adjust as needed)

👩‍🍳 Preparation Steps:

1. Soak the raisins: Place the raisins in warm water for 10–15 minutes to soften, then drain.
2. Cook the onions: In a pan over medium heat, add butter or oil. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Stir occasionally until they become soft and translucent (about 10 minutes).
3. Add flavor: Stir in the cinnamon, sugar, and drained raisins. Add water to help everything blend and simmer gently.
4. Caramelize: Let the mixture cook slowly over low heat for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and the sauce is thick and syrupy.
5. Serve: Spoon the tfaya over the couscous mound, right on top of the meat and vegetables. It adds a beautiful sweet contrast!
