Prawn And Harissa Stew With Couscous Recipes

Steps:

• Stir the carrots, celery root and 1/2 cup prunes in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Toss the beef with the ras el hanout, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Arrange on top of the vegetables. Whisk the chicken broth and tomato paste in a small bowl or liquid measuring cup and pour over the meat and vegetables. Cover and cook on low until the meat is tender, 7 to 8 hours.
• About 15 minutes before serving, cook the couscous as the label directs.
• Skim the fat off the top of the stew with a ladle and discard. Stir in the harissa and season with salt and pepper. Divide the couscous and stew among bowls. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup prunes and cilantro; serve with more harissa.

Steps:

• Put the couscous in a bowl with 1 tsp olive oil and just cover with boiling chicken stock. Cover and leave to swell for 5 minutes.
• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan, add the onion and garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes or until just tender.
• Add the cumin and fry for a minute, add the tomatoes and harissa and bubble everything together until it thickens slightly. Season well.
• Stir in the prawns and cook for 3 minutes, then scatter the coriander over. Serve with the couscous.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss shrimp with 1/4 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of black pepper and 1 tablespoon harissa. Set aside.
• In a large, lidded skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring, until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add couscous, garlic, coriander and cumin. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until couscous is toasted.
• Add wine and cook until evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of harissa and 2 1/2 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 10 minutes, until couscous is al dente. (There will still be plenty of liquid.)
• Nestle the shrimp into the couscous, pushing them under the surface a bit. Add the tomatoes and increase the heat until simmering again. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook 3 to 4 minutes, rearranging shrimp using tongs once, until they are pink and cooked through. Adjust seasoning, if needed, adding more harissa, salt and pepper if desired. Garnish with parsley and serve in shallow bowls.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Combine shrimp, harissa, and oil in a medium bowl; season with salt and toss to coat.
• Grill shrimp until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let cool.
• Toss shrimp, radishes, basil, and cilantro in another medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• DO AHEAD: Shrimp can be grilled 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

Steps:

• Bring a pan of lightly salted water to the boil. Add the broccoli and boil for 1 min 30 secs, or until tender. Drain and set aside. Cook the pasta following pack instructions, then drain, reserving a ladleful of cooking water.
• Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the garlic clove and fry over a low heat for 2 mins. Remove with a slotted spoon and discard, leaving the flavoured oil.
• Add the tomatoes to the pan and fry over a medium heat for 5 mins, or until beginning to soften and turn juicy. Stir through the prawns and cook for 2 mins, or until turning pink. Add the harissa and lemon zest, stirring to coat.
• Toss the cooked spaghetti and pasta water through the prawns and harissa. Stir through the broccoli, season to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a pan with the cumin seeds and toast for a few mins until aromatic. Tip in the carrots, season, then cook for 3 mins until tender. Transfer to a bowl, then pour over the couscous and 400ml hot water. Cover with cling film and leave for 10 mins, or until all the water has been absorbed and the couscous is tender.
• Meanwhile, heat the grill to high. Put the prawns, cherry tomatoes and onion wedges in another bowl, season, then stir in the harissa. Thread everything onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water first to prevent burning), then lay on a baking tray. Grill for 2-3 mins each side, or until the prawns are cooked though.
• Mix the tahini, yogurt, garlic, lemon juice and seasoning to make a sauce. Fork the mint though the couscous, transfer to a platter and place the skewers on top. Drizzle over any cooking juices, and serve with a dollop of sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• heat the oil in a large pan. Fry onion and garlic bulb for 5 minutes.
• Add canned tomatoes, harissa, cinnamon and stock. Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add potatoes and bring to boil, simmer for another 10 minutes.
• Add pumpkin and baby corn and simmer for a further 5 minutes.
• Add peas and cherry toms and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Remove the bulb and carefully remove the flesh and mash well. Add mash back into pan.
• Season if desired. Mix cornflour with 2 tbsp water and add to pan. Bring to boil and stir until thickened.
• Remove cinnamon and add the mint and coriander.
• Serve with cous cous or crusty bread.
