Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
- 1 red or orange pepper, cut into large chunks
- 1 small courgette, thickly sliced
- 1 red onion, cut into large chunks
- Approx 10 asparagus spears, if in season
- 2 large vine tomatoes, cut into quarters
- garlic, finely chopped, to taste
- olive oil
- maldon salt and freshly ground black pepper
- For the couscous
- couscous - as much as you think you'd like to eat with the veg (I use approx 4 tbsp of dry couscous per person)
- marigold vegetable stock powder
- few spring onions, finely chopped
- fresh coriander, finely chopped
- fresh lime juice, to taste
- 1 pack of goats cheese, crumbled or cubed - either the soft kind in a log or the type that comes in large discs with rind - whichever you prefer
- NOTE: all the above quantities are approximate, and will depend upon how hungry you are! I sometimes add some small waxy potatoes cut into small cubes as well - but cut them smaller than the sweet potato as they take longer to cook.
