Instructions
1
- Add 200ml water (500ml for 4p) and stock powder to a pot and bring to the boil.
- When boiling, remove from the heat, stir in the couscous and pop a lid on the pot.
- Leave to the side for 8-10 mins or until ready to serve.
TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- Trim the aubergine, then cut into roughly 2cm pieces.
- Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
- Roughly tear the basil leaves.
3
- Place a large pan over high heat with a glug of oil.
- When the oil is hot, fry the aubergine and pepper for 7-9 mins.
- Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: By stirring only every so often you'll allow the veg to char nicely.
4
- Reduce the heat of the pan to medium-high.
- Add the chopped tomato and half the torn basil.
- Cover and simmer for 5-7 mins.
- Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if necessary.
