Ingredients

  • 140g Turkey Mince
  • 120g couscous
  • 80g kale
  • 80g courgette
  • 200g chopped tomatoes
  • 9g garlic
  • 5g olive oil
  • a handful of fresh basil
  • 8g parmesan

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the kale 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

    Brown the turkey mince in a non-stick pan over high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, for 6-8 minutes until no pink remains.

  4. 4

    Gently fry the garlic in the olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10-12 minutes until rich. Tear in the basil at the end.

  5. 5

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

  6. 6

    Build the plate: couscous first, then the veg and turkey mince, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.
