Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.
- Pop the chickpeas and butternut squash onto a lined baking tray.
- Toss with a drizzle of oil, ground coriander, salt and pepper then spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until the butternut squash is soft and the chickpeas are crunchy, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.
TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
- Meanwhile, add the couscous to a bowl.
- Make a stock by dissolving the muscat in 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p).
- Pour the stock into the bowl with the couscous, cover tightly with a plate or cling film and leave aside for 10 mins.
TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- While the couscous cooks, halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
- Place a pan over medium heat (without oil).
- Once hot, add the sesame seeds and dry-fry, shifting regularly, until lightly toasted, 2-3 mins
- Remove from the pan and set aside.
TIP: Watch them like a hawk as they can burn easily.
- In a large bowl, mix the yoghurt, harissa paste and half the sesame seeds.
- Stir to combine then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Fluff up the couscous with a fork.
- Mix the couscous through the dressing along with the chopped onion.
- Carefully stir through the roasted butternut squash and crispy chickpeas.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.

- Crumble over the Greek Style Cheese.
