Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Preheat the oven to 215°C.
  • Slice the courgette into rounds of 3cm thickness. Dice the sweet potato. Cut the shallot into wedges.
  • Transfer all three to a parchment-lined baking sheet, then drizzle with olive oil and scatter over half of the Middle Eastern spices.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat and roast for 18 - 22 minutes.
Cook the giant couscous
2
  • Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount).
  • Cook the giant couscous for 12 - 14 minutes, then drain.
  • Add the ras el hanout, the Hello Harissa* and the rest of the Middle Eastern spices.
  • Mix well to combine and then set aside.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Make the salsa
3
  • Roll the pomegranate over the countertop so as to release the seeds, then cut it open and scoop them out. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Finely chop the fresh herbs and transfer to the pomegranate seeds
  • Add the dried apricots and the extra virgin olive oil. 
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper, then mix well to combine and set aside.
Toast the pistachios
4
  • Heat a clean frying pan over high heat.
  • Toast the pistachios until golden-brown, then remove from the pan.
  • Roughly chop the pistachios and then set aside.
Fry the duck
5
  • Slice the orange.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Fry the orange slices with the duck in its juices for 2 - 3 minutes per side, covered.
  • Remove from the pan and set aside under aluminum foil.
  • Crumble the cheese in the meantime.
Serve
6
  • Transfer the juices from the frying pan to the couscous, along with half each of the roasted vegetables, the cheese and the pomegranate salsa. Mix well to combine.
  • Serve the couscous on deep plates, topped with the duck and the fried orange slices.
  • Granish with the pistachios, along with the rest of the pomegranate salsa and the cheese.
