Kinda couscous

Hi, I made some photos of me cooking to share with everyone.
We had all kinds of veggies laying around and also some turkey we had to use, so we decided to make some couscous.
Too bad we didn't have ginger

ingredients:
-Couscous (medium)
-Turkey
-Chicken stock
-Roma tomato (type of tomato for sauce)
-Red onion
-Red bell pepper
-Zucchini
-Carrots
-Mushrooms
-Raisins
-Lentils
-Lemon zest
-Lemon juice
-Tomato paste
-Garlic
-Salt
-Black Pepper
-Kurkuma
-Cinnamon
-Cumin
-Coriander seeds (crushed)
-Harissa (optional)


I forgot to add a potato, which my wife always does in her vegetarian couscous recipe.
Don't ask me why my flour pot is in the picture, I didn't use it

i forgot the lentils in the first pic, so here they are.

first cut turkey in small pieces and season with some salt and black pepper

cut all veggies

now to make the sauce
start off with onion and garlic

add turkey

nice...

now add carrots, they take a bit longer as the other veggies

after a few minutes add the bell pepper, zucchini and mushrooms

season when the veggies start sweating
i used:
cinnamon
kurkuma
salt
black pepper
cumin
crushed coriander seeds

add tomatoes

now add chicken stock, you will need quite a lot because of the lentils we add later

some tomato paste to get a nice color

let it simmer until the carrots are about halfway done

add lentils, these take 15-20 minutes until done

about 5 minutes before the sauce is done add raisins

I was reminded we needed some lemon by this time, so i took the last we had out of the freezer

add lemon zest and start boiling a small amount of water for your couscous

put couscous in a pot and add the boiled water
after 7 minutes check if almost good, add a generous amount of butter and close for another 2 minutes

before serving add some lemon juice to the sauce

wallah!!!

leftover veggies couscous with turkey
