Instructions

1 Roast squash

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan.
Peel the butternut squash, slice it in half and, using a spoon, remove the seeds.
Chop the squash into bite-size pieces.
Place the squash onto a large baking tray with a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt.
Roast in the oven for 30 min or until golden and crisp.

2 Prep

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.
Drain the chickpeas.

3 Sauté

Heat a large pan over a medium-low heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil.
Add the onion with a pinch of salt.
Fry for 5-6 min until soft.
Once soft, add the garlic, a large pinch of cinnamon, the oregano and chilli flakes (spicy!).
Fry for 1 min further.

4 Simmer

Add the red vinegar, raisins, olives, half of the stock cube, the capers, chopped tomatoes, sugar, measured water, tomato paste and chickpeas.
Simmer for 15-20 min.

5 Prep couscous

Meanwhile, boil the measured water and dissolve the remaining stock cube and the saffron in it.
Add the couscous, almonds and a drizzle of olive oil to a bowl.
Pour the hot saffron stock over it.
Stir once, then cover with cling film or a plate.
Set aside for 5 min.
Fluff with a fork and season with lemon juice before serving.

6 Serve

Once the squash is soft and the stew is ready, add the squash to the stew.
Simmer for 2 min further.
Strip the basil leaves directly into the stew.
Mix.
