Extra Easy Why are tweaks not allowed

[Azeluk]

So I've started back in group after a bit of an absence, we were talking recipes and I explained that I use cous cous to cover my Scotch eggs and cous cous as a Base for my quiches.

I was told that I have to syn the cous cous as it's not being used for its actual purpose, I'm having difficulties understanding why?.
I don't grind the cous cous I make it up as normal add an egg to bind it then layer it on a quiche dish bake it for 10 mins take it out add a spread of tomato puree then my quiche bits and bake as normal.

So why does this need to be syn'd I'm not using it as a flour alternative and I make it up as directed.

And with the Scotch eggs I just roll the made Scotch egg in dried cous cous and bake.

Same with smash pizza apparently if you use smash as a pizza Base you need to syn it even if you make it up as directed.

So I'm a little confused.

Can any one explain this to me.

Many thanks

Because you are using it for what it's not suppose to be used for.

After seeing the video it makes more sense now, I'll carry in what I'm doing, I never use more then I normally portion myself any ways .
