Cooking Steps
- Boil your kettle (or a pot of water if you haven't got one).
- Add the couscous to a medium bowl with a drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p) into the bowl along with the stock.
- Stir together, cover and leave aside for 10 mins or until ready to serve.
- Meanwhile, trim the courgette then slice into 1cm thick rounds.
- Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Place a large pan over medium heat (without oil).
- Once hot, dry-fry the pine nuts until lightly toasted, 2-3 mins. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Return the pan to high heat (without oil).
- When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 6-8 mins. Turn only every few mins—this will allow it to pick up a nice colour.
- Once cooked, transfer to a bowl, sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- When the pan is hot, add the turkey mince. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince. Mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks, 5-6 mins.
- Once the turkey has cooked, add the cumin, paprika and Middle Eastern spice to the pan.
- Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 min more.
- Pour in the chopped tomatoes and 150ml water (double for 4p).
- Bring to the boil then reduce the heat to medium-low. Season with salt and pepper.
- Simmer until thickened, 15-20 mins. Stir through the honey.
TIP: Add a splash more water if it becomes too dry.
- Taste the stew and season with salt, pepper and sugar if required.
- Fluff up the couscous with a fork and divide between bowls.
- Spoon over the turkey stew and top with charred courgette.
- Crumble the Greek style cheese over everything.
- Finish with a sprinkling of chopped chives and a scattering of pine nuts.
