Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a 2-quart saucepan, bring water to a boil. (2 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Stir in couscous, diced mango, salsa, ground cumin, and curry powder. (1 minute)

03

Step
2 mins

Cover the saucepan, reduce heat to low, and simmer until all water is absorbed. (2 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. (5 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Fluff with a fork before serving to separate the grains and distribute the flavors evenly. (1 minute)

For a fresher flavor, use freshly diced mango instead of dried. If using fresh mango, consider reducing the water slightly, as fresh mango will release moisture during cooking.
Adjust the amount of salsa to your preferred level of spiciness.
Experiment with different types of salsa, such as mango salsa or pineapple salsa, to complement the mango flavor.
Garnish with fresh cilantro or mint for an added layer of freshness.

    My kids are picky eaters, but they actually enjoyed this! I used a mild salsa to make it less spicy for them.

    I've made this several times now, and it's always a winner. It's a great way to use up leftover salsa.

  • Tessie Franey

    I didn't have any dried mango on hand, so I used fresh mango instead. It was still delicious!
