Preparation
1
Make the Couscous

  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Pour the couscous and half the stock into a bowl.
  • Stir in 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p).
  • Cover with a plate or cling film.
  • Leave aside for 10 mins or until ready to serve. 

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

2
Form the Meatballs

  • In a large bowl, combine the mince, breadcrumbs, 2 tbsp water and ¼ tsp salt (double both for 4p). 
  • Season with pepper and mix together by hand. 
  • Roll into evenly-sized balls, 3-4 per person. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw mince.

3
Cook the Meatballs

  • Pop the meatballs onto a lined baking tray.
  • When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until browned on the outside and cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Meatballs are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

4
Prep the Veg

  • Meanwhile, chop the broccolini into thirds. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
  • Halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces. Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil
  • Once hot, add the broccolini, cherry tomatoes and shallot.
  • Fry until starting to char, 3-4 mins. Stir in the ras-el-hanout and fry for 1 min.

5
Make the Sauce

  • Add the passata, ½ tsp sugar, 2 tbsp water (double both for 4p), remaining stock and cooked meatballs. 
  • Cover and simmer until the veg is tender, 4-5 mins.
  • To finish, mix through the harissa paste, honey and a knob of butter.
  • Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if you feel it's too thick. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

TIP: Add less harissa if you don't like things spicy!

6
Finish and Serve

  • Mix half the parsley into the couscous, fluffing it up as you go.
  • Divide the herby couscous between deep plates or bowls.
  • Top with the meatballs and veg, drizzling over any sauce remaining in the pan. 
  • Finish with a scattering of the remaining chopped parsley.
