  • Garlic Clove: 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • Onion: 1 onion, chopped
  • Chopped Tomato: 2 x 400g cans chopped tomato

  • Flaked Almond: 25g toasted flaked almonds

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion and red pepper for about 5 mins until softened. Stir in the garlic, harissa and chopped tomatoes, and cook for about 10 mins until thickened. Add the frozen seafood and cook through, about 10 mins more.
  2. Put the couscous in a serving bowl, pour over boiling water to cover, then cover with cling film.
