Cooking Steps
- Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Pour 200ml water (500ml for 4p) and the stock powder into 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.
- Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Drain and rinse the chickpeas in a sieve.
- Chop the cauliflower into small florets.
- Arrange the chickpeas and cauliflower on a lined baking tray.
- Toss with ½ tsp salt, 2 tbsp oil (double both for 4p), Middle Eastern spice mix and chilli flakes (use less if you don't like spice).
- Bake on the top shelf of the oven until the chickpeas are crispy and the cauliflower is tender, 10-15 mins. Turn halfway through.
- Meanwhile, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
- Pick the mint leaves and roughly chop (discard the stalks).
- Zest then juice the lemon.
- In a large bowl for the salad, mix together the yoghurt, lemon zest, garlic, 1 tbsp lemon juice, ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp sugar and 2 tbsp oil (double all for 4p).
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the couscous, cauliflower, bell pepper, spinach, mint and half the chickpeas to the bowl with the lemon yoghurt dressing.
- Toss together until everything is evenly distributed and coated in the dressing.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper, if required.
- Divide your chickpea and cauliflower salad between bowls.
- Scatter the remaining chickpeas over the top.
- Finish off with as much of the remaining lemon juice as you like.
