How to Prepare Moroccan Couscous with Green Fava Beans:

  5. After resting, return the couscous to the steamer for the final steaming until it is fully cooked.

  6. Once the couscous is done, transfer it to a serving dish. Add the powdered sugar and ghee, mixing everything thoroughly. Then, add the cooked green fava beans and stir once again until everything is well combined.
