Ingredients

1 1/2 level tbsp Asda Harissa Paste

2 tbsp red wine vinegar

2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for brushing

2 aubergines, cut into 4cm cubes

1 red pepper

1 yellow pepper

400g can Asda Chickpeas

1 small red onion, finely chopped

350ml vegetable stock, made with 1 stock cube

27g couscous

40g flaked almonds

4 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley

Greek yogurt, mixed with chopped mint, to serve

Method

1
If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before you start. This stops the wood from burning during cooking.
2
In a freezer bag, mix the harissa pasta with the vinegar and 1 tbsp of the oil. Add the aubergine and toss to coat. Set aside for 10-15 minutes.
3
Pre-heat the grill. De-seed the peppers and cut into pieces the same size as the aubergine. Thread them onto the skewers with the aubergine, then brush the peppers with oil.
4
Grill the kebabs for 12-15 minutes, turning frequently, until the vegetables are soft and turning golden.
5
Meanwhile, heat the chickpeas in their liquid in a pan until hot.
6
Tip into a bowl and set aside. Rinse and dry the pan, then cook the onion in the remaining oil until soft. Remove from the heat.
7
Drain the chickpeas and add to the onion with the stock. Bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and add the couscous. Cover with a lid and set aside for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
8
Meanwhile, put the almonds in a dry frying pan and cook for 1-2 minutes, tossing, until golden.
9
Add the parsley and almonds to the couscous. Serve with the kebabs and Greek yogurt.
