Ingredients:

300g couscous
18.20 gm olive oil
1 onion, chopped
5.00 gm ground cumin
2.50 gm paprika
2.50 gm ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
80g sultana
170g capsicum
500g prawns, peeled (tails intact), deveined
600g canned chopped tomatoes
82.50 ml chopped coriander leaves
Lemon wedges, to serve

Instructions:

In a heatproof bowl, gently pour over 1 1/2 cups (375ml) of boiling water with 1 teaspoon of salt over the couscous. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and let it sit for 5 minutes to prepare the prawns.
In a deep frypan over medium heat, sauté the onion in hot oil until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in spices, sultanas, and capsicum for 1 minute. Mix in the prawns, ensuring they are coated in spices, then add the tomato and simmer for 2-3 minutes until prawns are cooked through and the sauce slightly thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fluff the couscous with a fork, then mix in 2 tablespoons of coriander. Serve prawns topped with the rest of the coriander, along with the couscous and lemon.
