Critical Success Points
- • Rub the semolina with oil before adding the water.
- • Brown the lamb pieces well to develop aromas.
- • Observe the successive steam times to obtain a light semolina.
- • Add the chickpeas at the end of cooking so they soak up flavor without falling apart.
Safety Warnings
- • Watch out for the very hot steam from the couscoussier.
- • Handle hot oil carefully to avoid splatters.
- • Use kitchen gloves when removing the dish from the oven.
