Ingredients:
500g couscous (or semolina)

Method:
Prepare the couscous as normal then set aside. Mix the yoghurt, condensed milk, vanilla and sugar in a bowl to form a thick milky liquid. Chill both the liquid and the couscous separately. Pour the liquid into small cups, add the couscous and stir well.
Serve as an after-dinner dessert, especially at Ramadan.
