Method

How to make the savoury tomatoes:

  • Chop the tomatoes
  • Chop the chilli – amount determined by your love of spice!
  • Put the coconut oil in a pan
  • When it warms up, add the Rye and Jiru and put the lid on the pan
  • When it pops, add the chillies and cover the pan again
  • After about 15 seconds, add the chopped tomatoes
  • Add the salt, turmeric and ground coriander powder
  • Let it cook
  • When it’s as soft as you’d like add the coriander – this is usually after 5 minutes for me

How to make for the couscous:

  • Boil the kettle
  • Put the couscous in a bowl
  • Crumble the stock on to the couscous ensuring there are no lumps
  • Mix it up
  • Drizzle some olive oil on it
  • Add water so that the level of water reaches about 1cm above the couscous
  • Add some freshly ground salt and pepper
  • Stir a little
  • Cover the bowl with a plate and leave it for about 3 minutes
  • The water should be absorbed and the couscous will be ready

Serving: Put the cous cous in a little bowl and turn it upside down to present the cous cous as shown in the photo.
