Instructions

Cook the Butternut Squash
1
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the butternut squash.
  • When boiling, add the butternut squash and cook until fork tender, 10-15 mins.
  • Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.
  • Cut the lemon into quarters.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Make the Couscous
2
  • Meanwhile, pop the couscous into a bowl. 
  • Pour in 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p).
  • Stir through half the harissa paste.
  • Cover with a plate or cling film and leave aside for 10 mins or until ready to serve.
Simmer the Stew
3
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, add the chickpeas and gently shake the pan to toss for 3-5 mins.
  • Add the ras-el-hanout and remaining harissa. Fry for 1 min more. 
  • Stir in the chopped tomato, peanut butter, two-thirds of the coconut milk and the juice from one-quarter of the lemon wedges. Cover and simmer for 8-10 mins.
  • Stir occasionally and add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if required.
Finish and Serve
4
