Couscous Preparation

1. Follow the package instructions to cook 1 cup of couscous. Fluff it with a fork once done and set aside to cool slightly.

Fried Egg

2. Heat a teaspoon of oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Crack the egg into the skillet, cooking until the whites are set but the yolk remains runny, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Sliced Tomato & Greens

3. While the egg cooks, slice one medium tomato. If using mixed greens instead of arugula, ensure they are washed and dried.

Assembly

4. On a plate, arrange the cooked couscous as a base. Top with the fried egg, arrange the sliced tomatoes artfully around the couscous, and add a small serving of arugula or mixed greens to the side. Serve immediately.
