Lime and Chili Couscous with Grilled Sweet Potato.

Mmmmmmm. Couscous.

Couscous is only good if you flavor it well. So don't be scared to pack it full of different flavors.

This couscous I made was Lime and Chili , with grilled sweet potato on the top. YUM.

You will need;

1 Medium to large Sweet Potato

1 Small red onion

1 Cup of Couscous

5 Tablespoons of olive oil

6 Tablespoons of lime juice

1 Teaspoon of lime zest (if you have fresh limes)

1 Teaspoon of chili (flakes or fresh)

1 Teaspoon of cayenne pepper

3 Cloves of garlic

1 Teaspoon of ginger (fresh is better)

3 Tablespoons of vegetable stock

Boiling water

First, peel and cut the Sweet Potato into discs (or however you want) and partly boil them. Once partly boiled you can then throw them in your George Foreman for about 15 mins.

In a pan, place oil, diced onions, garlic, ginger, chili and cayenne pepper and fry until onions are soft. Once it is at that stage put in the lemon juice and vegetable stock and let simmer for a few mins. After a few minutes, put in the couscous and stir through the mixture. Immediately pour in the boiling water just to cover the couscous and no more. Take straight off heat, cover and let stand for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes you can take a fork and fluff it up, it should be perfect.

All you need to do after that is add the sweet potato and salt and pepper to taste.

This recipe makes enough for 2 servings.
