Instructions

Make the Couscous
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Add the couscous to a medium bowl with ½ tsp salt (double for 4p) and pepper.
  • Pour 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p) into the bowl.
  • Cover with a plate or cling film and leave to the side for 10 mins (or until ready to serve).
Roast the Aubergine
2
  • Trim the aubergine, then cut into roughly 2cm pieces. Pop onto a lined baking tray. 
  • Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. 
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until the aubergine is soft and golden, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.
Toast the Almonds
3
  • Meanwhile, place a large pan (without oil) over medium-high heat.
  • Pick the mint leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks). 
  • Peel and grate the ginger. Use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel. 
  • Once the pan is hot, add the almonds and dry-fry, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 3-4 mins. Remove from the pan and set aside.

TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily.

Start the Tagine
4
  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve. Pat dry with kitchen paper.
  • Return the (now empty) pan to medium-high heat, with a good glug of oil.
  • Fry the chickpeas for 4-5 mins until crispy, shifting regularly.
  • Add the grated ginger and ras-el-hanout and fry until fragrant, 2-3 mins.
  • Add chopped tomatoes and half the harissa then lower heat to medium, cover and leave to simmer until reduced and slightly thickened, 10-12 mins.
Make the Spiced Yoghurt
5
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl mix yoghurt, remaining harissa and half the chopped mint
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Once the aubergine is roasted, add to the harissa yoghurt.
  • Stir to coat evenly.
Serve and Enjoy
6
  • Season the chickpea tagine to taste with salt, pepper and sugar, adding a splash of water if required.
  • Fluff up the couscous with a fork and divide between bowls.
  • Top with the chickpea tagine and harissa yoghurt aubergine
  • Garnish with the toasted almonds and remaining chopped mint.
