Middle Eastern Chickpea Stew
with Couscous, Almonds & Chilli Flakes
When we first tried this bright burst of goodness, we all agreed it had that "hug in a bowl" kind of feeling. There's wholesome chickpeas, sweet potato and baby spinach, plus a sublime, lightly spiced and coconut sauce that soaks into the couscous. Plate up and enjoy!

Instructions
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. • Place sweet potato on a lined oven tray. • Drizzle generously with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. • Finely chop garlic. • Trim and halve green beans. • Drain chickpeas.
• In a medium heatproof bowl, add couscous and half the vegetable stock powder. Add the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 11/2 cups for 4 people) and stir to combine. • Immediately cover with plate and leave for 5 minutes. Fluff up with fork and set aside.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans and chickpeas, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic and chermoula spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add passata, the remaining vegetable stock powder and coconut milk, stir to combine then bring to a boil. • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced slightly, 5-6 minutes. • Stir through roasted sweet potato and baby spinach leaves until wilted, 1 minute. Season with pepper.
• Divide couscous between bowls. Top with chermoula tomato chickpea stew. • Sprinkle over flaked almonds and chilli flakes (if using) to serve. Enjoy!
