Then add the 400 g lamb mince, breaking up the lumps with a spoon, for 4 minutes until browned. Then add the carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add 2 tsp Moroccan seasoning and 1 tsp curry powder and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Make yoghurt
- Meanwhile, put ½ cup Greek yoghurt in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper. Then add 2 tbsp peach and mango chutney and swirl through.
Make salad
- Dice 1 cucumber. Roughly chop 1 cup baby spinach. Reserve a few whole leaves, then finely chop 1 bunch coriander, including the stems. Add the cucumber, spinach, chopped coriander, 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp apple cider vinegar to the couscous and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
To serve
