Stir in 4 cups of water and cook on high until the beans are very tender, about 6 hours. (The stew holds well on warm.) About 20 minutes before you want to eat, turn the heat back up to high if it has switched to warm. Stir in the tomato purée, couscous, parsley and salt. Cook until the couscous is tender, about 20 minutes. Serve in bowls topped with labneh and almonds. If you plan on leftovers (plnovers), cook the couscous separately and add it to individual bowls. Leftover couscous in the stew will swell and get too soft. By: Sarah DiGregorio Yield: 6 servings RECIPE FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
