Cooking Instructions and Tips

Couscous
1

a) Pour the boiling water (see ingredients for amount) into a large saucepan along with half the stock powder. b) Stir in the couscous, remove from the heat and cover with a lid. c) Leave to the side until ready to serve.

2

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. b) When really hot, add the lamb strips, season with salt and pepper and stir- fry until browned all over, 1-2 mins, then remove to a bowl and set aside. c) TIP: Don't overcook the lamb here, you are just browning it. We will finish cooking it later.

Do the Prep
3

a) Halve, peel and finely slice the onion. b) Return the frying pan to medium-heat (add a splash of oil if it's dry) and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 3-4 mins. c) Meanwhile, trim the ends from the courgette quarter lengthways, then chop widthways into small pieces. Roughly chop the prunes. d) Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.
