Cooking Steps
• Grate carrot. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Add carrot, and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Add the water and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and currants, then stir to combine. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with fork.
• Meanwhile, trim green beans. Slice lemon into wedges. • Discard any liquid from beef strips packaging. In a medium bowl, combine beef strips, chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook green beans, tossing regularly, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook beef strips in batches with a pinch of salt and pepper, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. • Reduce pan to medium, add coconut milk, the honey and a splash of water, and cook until slightly reduced, 1 minute.
TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• Divide jewelled couscous, green beans and lemon wedges between four microwave-safe containers. • Top couscous with saucy chermoula beef, cover with a lid and refrigerate. • When ready to serve, remove lemon and microwave on high for 4 minutes, stirring halfway through, until heated through. • Squeeze over lemon juice. Enjoy!
