Israeli Couscous with Spinach & Parmesan Cheese

Directions

Heat oil and butter in a saucepan over medium high heat.

Add the shallots (or minced red onion) and cook, stirring frequently for 3 minutes or beginning to soften. Add the couscous and cook stirring until the couscous begins to turn golden, another 5 minutes.

Add the vegetable stock, bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 7 minutes. Stir in the spinach, cover the pot and cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and fresh ground black pepper.
