Steps

Sequence	Step

1	Soak dried fruits in water 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients. Rinse as needed.
2	Combine 1 1/3 Cups dry israeli couscous with 2 3/4 cup water. Boil 5-7 min and then remove from heat, covered, allow couscous to absorb the remaining water. Undercooking prevents couscous from getting soggy.
3	Toast slivered almonds until golden brown. This can be done in a regular non-stick pan.
4	Combine fruits, 2 TBS water, a TBS of brown sugar, and a dash of cinnammon (to taste) in a nonstick skillet. Cook until fruits have absorbed the liquid.
5	Combine fruits, toasted almonds, and remaining olive oil and cinammon sugar to the cooked couscous. Stir well, add salt and pepper as needed.
