Cooking Steps

Get Started
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Chop the sweet potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).

Put the sweet potato chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Prep Time
2

Meanwhile, trim the courgette and slice into 1cm thick rounds.

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

In a small bowl, combine the honey and olive oil for the marinade (see pantry for both amounts) with half the chermoula spice mix and a quarter of the caramelised onion paste. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.

Bake the Haddock
3

When the potatoes are halfway through, pat the haddock dry with kitchen paper. Lay the haddock onto a lined baking tray.

Spread the chermoula marinade over the top of the fillets. 

Roast on the middle shelf until the fish is cooked through and golden, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. It's cooked when opaque in the middle.

Char the Courgette
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.

When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 3-4 mins each side. 

Once cooked, pop the courgette into a small bowl, season with salt and pepper and cover to keep warm. Set aside for later.

Add the Flavour
5

Return the (now empty) pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil (no need to clean).

Add the garlic, remaining chermoula spice mix and remaining caramelised onion paste. Stir-fry, 1 min.

Stir in the passata, veg stock paste, chickpeas and their liquid along with the sugar and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Simmer until thickened slightly, 3-4 mins.

Once thickened, stir in the roasted sweet potato, charred courgette and butter (see pantry for amount) until melted and combined, 1-2 mins.

Serve Up
6

Taste and season the stew with salt and pepper if you feel it needs it. Add a splash of water if the stew is looking a little thick.

When everything's ready, share the chickpeas between serving bowls.
