Steps

20 minutes

  2. 2

    We are going to use 2 cooking spoons of oil for this meal, firstly for this stage we are using half of the oil(that is 1 cooking spoon of oil) to Saute onions and garlic then pour in the couscous

  3. 3

    Add the cinnamon, thyme into the couscous and stir fry on medium heat. This stir fry prevents the couscous from being mushy and gives it a nice texture.
    Note: you must be on top of the situation stirring because it can easily burn. So stir continuously for like 8 min

  4. 4

    This is our aftermath, a bit crispy. Then keep aside. Note even if you are cooking white couscous, stir fry it with oil for a while and add required water to have a non mushy white couscous

  5. 5

    Add the remaining 1 cooking spoon of oil in a separate bowl and add your tomato paste, blended Scotch bonnet and fry for a while then add curry, Maggi and salt

  6. 6

    Add required water, note the measurements of water is very important, 2:1 as explained earlier in the ingredients column. I've tried this recipe several times and it works well, cover and allow to boil.

    Then add the boiling tomato soup into the stir fried couscous, add slightly fried tofu chunks, green peppers and carrots and allow to cook on medium heat for 5 min

  8. 8

    Couscous takes just few minutes to be done, approximately 5-7min.
    Add the cabbage and spring onions, cover and allow to simmer for 2-3 min in medium heat. Note medium heat is the best, to avoid burning
