I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my couscous turned out mushy. I'm going to try it again and see if I can get it right.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. The couscous was dry and bland. I wouldn't recommend it.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and herbs, and it was much better.

This couscous was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably won't be making it again.
