chickpea-aubergine-tomatoey-mushroomy-couscousy goodness
Rar
Made this last night and it might not be the most exciting thing in the world but the flavour was lovely. Fantastic comfort food.
Anyway.
ingredients1/2 large aubergine (cubed)
1/2 tin chopped tomatoes
1/2 red pepper (chopped)
onion (chopped)
few spring onions (sliced)
few mushrooms (sliced)
rosemary, basil, marajaram, oregano
soysauce
dash maple syrup
some cous cous
1/2 tin chickpeas
Heat a little olive oil in a saucepan, add aubergine and onion. Stir, then cover and leave to cook on a moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Add herbs. Add pepper after a few minutes, then add mushrooms a bit after that. After a couple of minutes add a little hot water to stop everything from sticking. Add tomatoes and a dash of soysauce, the chickpeas and the spring onions. Leave to cook for a bit. Add some cous cous and add a bit more water if there's not enough liquid. The cous cous absorbs a load of the tomatoey sauce. Leave for a few minutes until the cous cous is cooked. It's immense.
