Preparing a vegetarian meal in the Algerian cuisine can be a simple thing to accomplish, since the staple ingredients are the couscous, yellow rice and fruits and vegetables. Couscous is semolina-like pasta made from cracked wheat and may consist as the basis of a vegetarian meal. It can be served with different sauces, spicy or mild, or with steamed vegetables. Salads of fresh vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and onions are great during summertime, and bakes and cooked veggies, such as zucchini, squash, artichoke and eggplants, make for delicious vegetarian hot stews. Other vegetarian dishes include lentils with onions, spiced beans with to tomatoes, zucchini stews, fava beans in sauce, eggplant ratatouille, Algerian carrots, and Algerian green beans with almonds. As part of a vegetarian meal, Jary (a thick lemony wheat soup with green herbs and mint) can start of lunch, and fired potatoes in peanut or olive oil can be served as second course. Dried fruits are great for a vegetarian dessert.
