israeli cous cous with curry and onions

This made for a satisfying side dish

1 box of Israeli cous cous (I think it is about a cup)
3/4 C chicken stock
3/4 cup water
1 med. - lg. onion rough chopped
2 tsp. curry powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 T olive oil

heat a sauce pan and add dry cous cous - toast for 4-5 minutes until slightly browned - shaking frequently (the pan)
remove toasted couse cous
Add oil - give it a moment to heat
add onion and saute / cook over medium high heat until slightly browned (at least 8 minutes)
return cous couse to pan and add stock and water
add curry powder and salt and pepper to taste
bring to a boil - reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 12 minutes
fluff with a fork
