Original steps
- Prepare a wide, high-sided pot and fill it halfway with water; place a steamer sieve over it, sealing the edges with a dough made from flour and water, then place over medium heat until boiling.
- Place the couscous in a cheesecloth of appropriate size and fold the edges into the sieve to cover it, then cover with the pot lid and leave over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Carefully remove the cheesecloth from the sieve and spread the couscous in a bowl, using a fork to fluff and separate the grains, then let it rest; sprinkle with 1 cup of cold water or broth and gently loosen the grains by hand.
- Return the couscous to the cheesecloth, place it back in the sieve, cover, and cook for a second time for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the cheesecloth and place in a bowl over low heat, add the ghee to taste, and stir with a fork while hot.
- Serve in a dish and sprinkle with powdered sugar and coconut.
This is a V0 document: the original ingredients and steps from fifi.cooking, with quantities parsed from the text where possible. No step has been classified, measured or verified, so a device assigns every step to a person and refuses to cook it alone (RFC-0009). It becomes V1 when a reviewed process graph replaces the steps.
