Vegetable tagine with couscous
Olive or canola oil spray
1 onion, chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground paprika
pinch saffron threads
200 g sweet potato, chopped
200 g potato, chopped
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (e.g. zucchini, beans, carrots)
400 g can crushed tomatoes
1 cup MAGGI All Natural Vegetable Liquid Stock
100 g dried prunes
1½ cups couscous
3 cups boiling MAGGI All Natural Vegetable Liquid Stock, extra
50 g toasted slivered almonds
Spray a large saucepan with oil and heat. Add onion and spices and cook over low heat until onion is soft and spices are fragrant. Add all the vegetables, stock and prunes, and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until potato is tender.
