INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE MEATBALLS
FOR THE SAUCE
FOR THE COUSCOUS
1 Start by pouring the boiling water over the couscous and stir in 1/2 tsp
salt and 1 tsp oil. Leave to stand for about five minutes.
2 For the Meatballs: Finely chop the onion and crush the garlic. Transfer
to a large bowl.
3 Add the beef mince, currants, cumin seeds, chopped parsley and salt and
pepper. Using your hands, combine all the ingredients.
4 Pull off small pieces of the mixture and roll in your hands to make balls
approximately 4cm/1 1/2" in size. Make five balls and set aside.
5 Heat a small saute pan for the sauce and add the vegetable oil. Add the
chopped onion and crushed garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes.
6 Heat a frying pan with 2 tbsp oil and add the meatballs. Cook for a
minute on each side until golden. Place a lid on the pan and cook for 7-8
minutes.
7 Add the chopped tomatoes, runny honey, chilli flakes and cinnamon to the
onions, and simmer the sauce gently for 4-5 minutes. Season to taste.
8 Heat a small frying pan and add the flaked almonds. Fry for 1-2 minutes
until lightly golden. Finely chop the coriander, reserving a sprig to
garnish. Roughly chop the almonds.
9 Take the couscous out of the microwave and carefully remove the
clingfilm. Fluff with a fork and add the chopped almonds, coriander, salt
and pepper. Place a mound of couscous onto the serving plate. Top with the
meatballs, cover with the sauce and garnish with the coriander sprig.
