Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Peel and cut the kumara into bite-sized chunks. Slice the carrot into half-moons. Place the veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle generously with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Add a dash of water to the tray, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. When the veggies have 5 minutes cook time remaining, add the flaked almonds to the tray and roast until toasted.
While the veggies are roasting, finely chop the brown onion. Finely chop the garlic. Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and chermoula spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Add the coconut cream, tomato sugo, chickpeas, apricot sauce, and a pinch of salt to the frying pan and mix well to combine. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the stew has reduced slightly, 8-10 minutes. Slightly mash the chickpeas with a potato masher or fork. Add the roasted veggies and the baby spinach leaves and stir through until wilted. Season with pepper.
While the stew is simmering, add the water and vegetable stock powder to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the couscous and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork.
Roughly chop the parsley leaves. Divide the couscous between bowls and top with the creamy chickpea stew. Garnish with the toasted almonds, parsley and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using). Crumble over the goat cheese. Serve with the Greek-style yoghurt.
