A zesty blend of spices, garlic, and fresh herbs, chermoula is a Moroccan spice traditionally used to season fish and meat, and is the superstar seasoning in tonight’s speedy dish. Sweet juicy prawns in a thick tomato sauce packed with fresh veggies and served alongside roasted sweet potatoes, it’s hard to say which ingredient we love most. Regardless of the weather outside, this recipe will transport you to the warm, sunny climes of Northern Africa.

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
