Cooking Steps

Roast the capsicum
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Slice each capsicum in half lengthways then remove stem and seeds. • Place capsicums on a lined oven tray. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. • Arrange cut-side up and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Get prepped
2

• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. • Grate carrot. Roughly chop dill. Slice lemon into wedges.

Make the couscous
3

• When capsicums have 10 minutes remaining, in a medium heatproof bowl, place couscous and half the stock concentrate. • Add the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 11/2 cups for 4 people) and stir to combine. Immediately cover with plate and leave for 5 minutes. • Fluff up with a fork and set aside.

Cook the beef
4

• Meanwhile, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook carrot and lean beef mince, breaking mince up with a spoon, until just browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add tomato paste and lemon pepper seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in the water (for the beef), the brown sugar and remaining stock concentrate, until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before cooking the tomato paste.

Bring it all together
5

• Once couscous is cooked, add a drizzle of olive oil and a good squeeze of lemon jucie and stir through rocket and dill until combined. • Once capsicums are roasted, spoon in beef filling.

Finish & serve
6

• Divide spinach couscous and lemon pepper lean beef stuffed capsicums between bowls. • Drizzle over Greek-style yoghurt and crumble over fetta cubes. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
