Cooking Steps
- Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
- Trim the carrot then halve lengthways (unpeeled). Slice widthways into 1cm thick pieces.
- Add the veg to a lined baking tray. Toss with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.
TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
- Pour the couscous and stock into a bowl.
- Stir in 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p).
- Cover with a plate or cling film and leave aside for 10 mins (or until ready to serve).
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- Place a pan over medium heat (without oil).
- Once hot, dry-fry the almonds, stirring regularly, until lightly toasted, 3-4 mins.
- Remove from the pan and set aside.
TIP: Watch them closely—they can burn easily.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the prawns. Season with ras-el-hanout, salt and pepper.
- Cook for 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. Prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
- Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and stir through the honey.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
- In a bowl, mix the aioli, yoghurt and parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Stir the roast veg and spinach through the couscous. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide the roast veg couscous between bowls.
- Top with ras-el-hanout spiced prawns.
- Drizzle over the parsley sauce.
- Finish with a scattering of toasted almonds.
