Method...

  1. Heat olive oil in a suitable pan, add the onion, garlic and pepper, cook for 4-5 minutes, with not too much colour, stirring occasionally. Stir in the Zesty Chermoula Style Seasoning, cook for a further 2 minutes.

  2. Add the courgette and aubergine and continue cooking until they start to soften, remove from the heat and put to one side.

  3. Bring the Essential Cuisine Vegetable Stock to the boil in a pan and add the dried fruit, simmer for 5 minutes, then stir in the couscous.

  4. Remove from the heat and cover with a lid. Leave to stand for 20 minutes then give it a good stir with a fork to separate the grains.
  5. Gently fold in the cooked vegetables to the couscous, season to your taste with lemon juice, freshly ground pepper and sea salt. Served hot or cold, your Chermoula Spiced Vegetable Couscous with Dried Fruits is ready to serve, garnish with the chopped coriander and mint.
