Instructions

Roast the veggies
1

Bring a kettle of water to the boil. Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Thinly slice the capsicum into strips. Cut the red onion into 2cm wedges. Cut the courgette into 1cm half-moons. Place the veggies on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Cook the couscous
2

While the veggies are roasting, finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water (for the couscous) and vegetable stock powder and bring to the boil. Add the couscous and another drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Leave until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork and set aside, uncovered.

Get prepped
3

While the couscous is cooking, roughly chop the parsley leaves. Zest the lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges. Roughly chop the roasted almonds. In a small bowl, combine the dill & parsley mayonnaise, water (for the dressing) and Greek-style yoghurt. Season to taste and set aside.

Cook the falafel
4

Use your hands to break each falafel bite into halves (don't worry if they crumble!). Heat a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the boiling water (see ingredients) and falafel and cook until the water is evaporated. Once evaporated, add a generous drizzle of olive oil to the falafel and cook, tossing occasionally, until golden, 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel and season with salt and pepper.

Finish the couscous
5

While the falafel is cooking add a generous squeeze of lemon juice, the lemon zest, parsley and roasted veggies to the couscous. Toss to combine.

Serve up
6

Divide the Mediterranean roast veggie couscous between bowls. Top with the falafels. Drizzle over the dill-parsley yoghurt dressing. Garnish with the almonds. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges.
