Ingredients:
  • 600g thick white fish fillets (such as swordfish or ling), cut into 3cm pieces
  • 5.00 gm ground cumin
  • 2.50 gm sweet paprika
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 1 brown onion, halved, thinly sliced
  • 2 celery sticks, ends trimmed, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 200g pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, coarsely grated
  • 1 zucchini, ends trimmed, coarsely grated
  • 240g (1 1/4 cups) couscous
  • 310ml (1 1/4 cups) boiling water
  • 125.00 ml chopped fresh coriander
  • Greek Style Yoghurt, to serve
Instructions:
  • Combine the fish, garlic, oil, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl, tossing to mix well. Season with pepper to taste.
  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook half of the fish, turning occasionally, for 4-5 minutes until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining fish.
  • Saute the onion and celery until the onion starts to soften. Then, toss in the pumpkin and zucchini and cook until tender. Stir constantly for even cooking.
  • Place the couscous in a large heatproof bowl and cover it with boiling water. Let it sit for 5 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
  • Combine the fish, pumpkin mixture, and coriander with the couscous, tossing gently until fully mixed. Divide into serving bowls and top with a dollop of yogurt before serving.
