Hashu is one of those things we ate often growing up. My mom would make it for Shabbat and holidays and dress it up with carefully toasted pine nuts, and garnish it with curly parsley. The perfectly cooked rice, the soft sautéed onions, the flavorful ground beef with the warm and cozy spices that are most often used in Syrian cooking. This fun take on hashu using couscous is a great way to make a festive food a little casual and perfect for weeknight suppers. I highly recommend serving this alongside Israeli salad with lots of fresh lemon juice!
