Ingredients

Couscous

  • 100 g Giant Couscous or any kind of couscous
  • 1 Vegetable Bouillon Cube
  • 1 tbsp Mild Olive Oil
  • 1 Red Onion diced
  • 1 tsp Coconut Sugar or brown sugar
  • 2 tsp Balsamic Vinegar
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper chopped into 1/2 inch chunks
  • 1/2 Courgette chopped into 1/2 inch chunks
  • 1 tsp Turmeric Powder
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • 400 g Chickpeas drained and rinsed

To serve (optional)

  • 1 tbsp Garlic-infused Olive Oil or plain olive oil
  • Coriander Leaves roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the stock cube and couscous and cook until al dente, for 10-12 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water then set aside.
  • In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil on a low-medium heat and sauté the onion for 2 minutes until softened. Add the sugar and balsamic vinegar. Cook for a further 3 minutes.
  • Add in the garlic, red pepper and courgette. Fry for 10 minutes on a medium heat, until the vegetables are cooked. Add a little more olive oil or a splash of water if the pan gets dry.
  • In a large bowl, add the cooked cous cous, the turmeric, chickpeas and stir in the fried vegetables. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, drizzle with some extra olive oil (garlic-infused preferably!) and some fresh coriander.
