SaveSummary
A U-shaped peeler with a horizontal blade (available at most supermarkets) makes peeling the squash easier. Here it’s okay to pulse the parsley in a food processor rather than chop it by hand, but pat it dry with paper towels first.
Ingredients
- 1 preserved lemon
- 1 1/2 pound butternut squash, peeled and seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 3/4 cups Israeli couscous or acini di pepe (tiny peppercorn-shaped pasta), about 1 pound
- 1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
- 1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
