Moroccan Spiced Sweet Potato Medley {cous cous}


2 tbsp olive oil
1 med. onion (diced in big chunks)
2 cloves garlic
1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2ish peeled, diced (inch) sweet potato
1 can stewed tomatoes
1 cup cous cous (or bulgur)
4 cup water
1 can garbanzo beans (drained)
1 cup cilantro
plain yogurt

-first 7 ingredients in BIG frying pan (wok would be best) so that the seasonings and onions are well mixed.
-Add the next 5 ingredients and let it cook, I'd say about a half hour. Watch the potatoes, until they are soft and ready to eat.
-Serve with fresh cilantro and I added plain yogurt too...very yummy.
-The recipe called for less water but I kept adding and adding more cause the cous cous would stick to the pan. I would also add less cayenne cause it was pretty spicy.
one of my favorites, SO good, Chad loved it too.
