Cooking Steps

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Halve the courgette lengthways and scoop out the seeds, then use a fork to pierce the flesh. Crush or mince the garlic, then transfer to a bowl along with the Middle Eastern spices. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, then mix well to combine and spread half of it over the courgette. Transfer to an oven dish and roast for 18 - 20 minutes.

Prepare the stock in a pot or saucepan for the couscous. Take the pan off the heat and add the couscous, then allow to stand for 10 minutes, covered. Fluff through the couscous with a fork, then add the rest of the oil from step 1 and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Roll the pomegranate over the countertop so as to release the seeds. Cut open the pomegranate and remove the seeds. Weigh the necessary amount.

Finely chop the onion and transfer to the couscous along with two thirds of the shaved almonds. Lightly drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and mix well to combine. Serve the courgette on plates and fill with the couscous. Top with the Greek-style cheese and garnish with the pomegranate seeds and the rest of the shaved almonds. Drizzle with the crema di balsamico.
