Ingredients
- 250 g pumpkin chopped
- 1 small red bell pepper chopped, red capsicum
- 1 small eggplant chopped
- 1 zucchini chopped, medium
- 2 Roma tomato chopped
- 1 small red onion sliced
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt
- black pepper
- 3 teaspoon olive oil divided
- 1 cup couscous prepared according to package instructions - see my notes for a tip for extra flavour, giant/pearl
- 50 g feta cheese crumbled, Danish
- ¼ cup mint thinly sliced, fresh leaves, loosely packed
- lemon optional, juice of a
- 2 tablespoon pine nuts
Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 180c ff / 355f.
- Take a large rimmed baking sheet, and place pumpkin, capsicum, eggplant, zucchini, tomato & onion into a rough pile on the sheet.
- Sprinkle vegetable pile with ground cumin, garlic powder, salt & pepper and mix to coat - I use my hands for this.
- Drizzle 2 teaspoon of olive oil over vegetables, then mix again to coat. Spread the vegetables out evenly on the baking sheet, and bake for 20 mins.
- Remove from oven, sprinkle over the pine nuts and return to the oven for a further 5 mins.
- Meanwhile, cook the couscous according to packet instructions (my tip for extra flavour in the couscous is to use vegetable or chicken stock instead of water).
- Place the cooked couscous in a bowl, then add the roasted vegetables plus the extra 1 tsp of olive oil. Add crumbled feta and sliced mint, mixing lightly to combine.
- Drizzle over lemon juice if using, and serve.
Notes
- My tip for getting some extra flavour into your giant/pearl couscous is to prepare it using vegetable or chicken stock instead of water.
- If you are not sure where to find giant/pearl couscous in the supermarket, in Australia it's in the dry pasta section.
