Ingredients:

500g couscous (or semolina)
1l vanilla yoghurt (Senegalese yoghurts are all very sweet, add 2 tbsp or sugar if using Western-style yoghurts)
180ml condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
80g sugar

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.
