Couscous Sarda Pudding

This dish is best known cooked with fregola, but as I was unable to locate fregola, I used giant couscous instead, as it is very similar (fregola is a small pasta grain from Italy)

1 cup giant couscous

3 cups skimmed milk

sweetener to taste

½ tsp saffron powder

½ stick of cinnamon

2 whole star anise

5 whole cardamoms

Gently simmer the couscous in the milk with all the other ingredients for around ten minutes until the couscous is soft but still retains some bite. I would recommend stirring almost constantly to avoid it sticking to the bottom of the pan. Remove the whole spices before serving. Sprinkle over a little cinnamon and enjoy!
