Cuscuz Marroquino, also known as Moroccan Couscous, is a versatile and nutritious dish originating from North African cuisine. It is typically made from small steamed granules of durum wheat semolina, forming a light and fluffy base. Often paired with vegetables like carrots, zucchini, and chickpeas, or proteins such as lamb, chicken, or fish, it offers a balanced combination of nutrients. Rich in fiber and complex carbohydrates, couscous can provide sustained energy, while its vegetable and legume accompaniments contribute vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Low in fat, the dish can support heart health, though variations with added oils, butter, or sugary dried fruits may increase calorie content. Its adaptability makes it suitable for various dietary needs, but portion control is key for maintaining nutritional balance.
