Ingredients:
4 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, peeled and cut into wedges
1 large aubergine, cut into pieces
1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp ground coriander
1tsp mild chilli powder
1 400ml bottle passata
150ml vegetable stock
1 300g can chickpeas, drained
100g fine beans, trimmed
225g couscous
2tsp salt
Fresh coriander leaves
Method:
Heat the oil in a heavy based pan and cook the onions
and aubergine over a moderate heat for 7-8 mins until
golden and soft.
Add the cauliflower and spices and cook. Stir to coat in
the spices for 3-4 mins, then add the passata and stock.
Bring to the boil then reduce the heat. Stir, cover and
simmer for 20 mins until vegetables are tender.
Add the chickpeas and beans and cook uncovered for a
further 5 mins until the beans are just tender and the
chickpeas are piping hot. Meanwhile place the couscous
in a large bowl and pour over 600ml hot water, add salt
and stir. Set aside for 10 mins, fluffing occasionally
with a fork.
Add some coriander leaves to the pan with vegetables and
stir.
Serve the vegetables on a bed of steamed couscous with a
dollop of natural yogurt. Sprinkle more coriander leaves
to serve. |
