Chermoula spice is the ultimate complimentary seasoning for tender pork and protein-rich chickpeas, and with hearty couscous plus a cooling yoghurt, this bowl is a burst of flavour in every bite! We can't wait to dig in. We’ve replaced the mint in this recipe with parsley due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.
