Cooking Instructions:

BEFORE COOKING:

Preheat oven to 210℃ (fan bake). Boil the kettle.
1. TO COOK THE PEARL COUSCOUS:

Place boiling water from the kettle into a pot, season with salt and bring up to the boil over a high heat. Once boiling add the pearl couscous and cook for 15-16 mins. Drain well into a colander and drizzle with a little olive oil to stop sticking. Place in a salad bowl.
2. TO COOK THE BROCCOLI AND CRISPY CHICKPEAS:

Line an oven tray with baking paper. Place the chickpeas into a sieve and rinse under cool running water. Drain well. Cut the broccoli into small bite sized pieces and place on the oven tray with the chickpeas. Spray with oil, season with salt and bake in the oven for 10-12 mins until the broccoli is cooked through.
3. TO ASSEMBLE THE COUSCOUS:

Add the broccoli and chickpeas to the salad bowl with the couscous. Remove the mint and Italian parsley leaves from their stalks and roughly chop the leaves. Add the herbs to the salad bowl with the baby spinach. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze half the lemon onto the salad. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
4. TO COOK THE MOROCCAN BEEF STRIPS:

Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a high heat. Once hot add the Moroccan beef strips to the pan and cook for 30-60 secs – don’t cook any longer as this will make them tough. Season with salt and pepper.
TO SERVE:

Spoon roasted broccoli and chickpea couscous onto a plate. Top with pan seared Moroccan beef strips and dollop with sweet tahini dressing.
