Ingredients

  • 130g Salmon Fillet
  • 120g couscous
  • 80g butternut squash
  • 80g courgette
  • 20g harissa paste
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • fresh mint

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the butternut squash and courgette, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Pour just-boiled stock over the couscous, cover for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon on a lined tray, brush with some of the sauce and bake at 200°C for 12-14 minutes until it flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Loosen the harissa with lemon juice and brush it over the protein before cooking. Swirl a little extra harissa through the yoghurt to serve.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the butternut squash and courgette for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: couscous first, then the veg and salmon, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh mint.
