Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Thinly slice radish. Slice lemon into wedges. • In a medium bowl, add couscous and chicken-style stock powder. • Add the boiling water (see ingredients) and stir to combine. Immediately cover with plate and leave for 5 minutes. • Fluff up with fork and set aside to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine lamb mince, fine breadcrumbs, chermoula spice blend and the egg. • Using damp hands, roll beef mixture into koftas about 8cm long and 2.5cm thick (3 per person). • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook koftas, turning regularly, until browned and cooked through, 10-12 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).
• To the bowl with the couscous, add radish, mixed salad leaves, a generous squeeze of lemon juice and drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide couscous between bowls. Top with chermoula lamb koftas. • Drizzle over Greek-style yoghurt. Tear over mint. Serve with remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
