Moroccan Meatballs

with Herby Couscous

The key to delicious fluffy couscous is twofold: the first is to make sure the couscous is well covered for 5 minutes so that the boiling water can fully absorb and give you a fluffy result. The second, flavour baby! Stirring butter and coriander through the couscous really brings it to life.

Cooking Steps

1

To prepare ingredients, finely chop the brown onion and coriander, peel and crush the garlic and wash the baby spinach.

Shape mince into meatballs
2

Combine the beef mince, half of the brown onion, half of the coriander and the cumin & paprika spice mix in a medium bowl. Shape the mixture into meatballs (5 per person).

Cook the meatballs, turning occasionally
3

Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned all over. Remove the meatballs from the pan and set aside.

Return meatballs to the pan and cook sauce
4

Place the same frying pan back over a medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the browned meatballs back to the pan and pour over the diced tomatoes and sugar. Bring to the boil and then reduce to a medium-low heat. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir through the baby spinach until wilted.

5

Meanwhile, place the couscous in a medium bowl. Pour the boiling water over the couscous, stir with a fork, and then cover the bowl tightly with cling wrap. Leave to sit for 5 minutes. Remove the cling wrap and fluff the couscous with a fork. Stir through the butter and remaining coriander. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

6

To serve, divide the couscous between bowls. Top with the Moroccan meatballs and spoon over the tomato sauce. Top with any extra coriander, if you like.
