Instructions

Get Prepped
1

Fill and boil your kettle. Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Roughly chop the apricots. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a colander.

Cook the Couscous
2

Pour the boiling water for the couscous (see ingredients for amount) into a saucepan and bring back to the boil. When boiling, remove from the heat, stir in the couscous and half the veg stock powder. Pop a lid on the pan and leave to the side for 8-10 mins or until ready to serve.

Start the Stew
3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium high heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, 4-5 mins. Stir occasionally.Stir in the garlic, harissa paste and dried apricots. Cook for 1 minute.

Simmer
4

Stir in the passata, water (see ingredients for amount) and remaining stock powder.Season with salt and pepper. Add the chickpeas and simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly, 2-3 mins. Add the rainbow chard in handfuls and stir into the sauce. Cover with a lid and cook until the chard is tender, 3-4 more mins.

Finish the Prep
5

While the stew cooks, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). Break up the feta into small chunks. Fluff up the couscous with a fork and stir through a drizzle of oil and half the parsley. Taste the couscous and add salt and pepper if you feel it needs it.

Finish and Serve
6

Taste the stew and add salt and pepper if you feel it needs it. TIP: Add a splash of water too if you feel it needs loosening up a bit. Serve the couscous in bowls, spoon the stew on top and finish with the feta and remaining parsley. Enjoy!
