Cook's Notes: This recipe calls for instant couscous. Making couscous by hand, as has been done since ancient times, is seriously labor-intensive. But the versions sold in Western stores are machine-made, pre-steamed, and dried to allow for very quick cooking. These sandwiches are so flavorful, your dinner guests will forget they're made without any meat. To make them vegan, make sure to skip the Parmesan cheese.
