Root Veg Cous Cous - Marigold Health Foods
 

What you’ll need:

  • A mix of vegetables cut into large (1 inch) chunks – we’ve used butternut squash, parsnips, red onions and courgettes – enough for 6 people

  • 5 cloves of garlic, crushed

  • 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary, chopped

  • A few leaves of sage, chopped

  • 200ml olive oil

  • 300g cous cous

  • 1tsp of Marigold Bouillon Powder

  • Marigold Engevita® Nutritional Yeast Flakes, to taste

How to do it:

  1. Set your oven to 200C fan and chop the veg into large chunks. (remember, you can use all types of root veg for this recipe)

  2. Mix the garlic, herbs and 150ml of the olive oil and sprinkle over the veg, then roast for 25 to 30 minutes.

  3. Remove from the oven. Stir in the Nooch and the remaining oil (you may need a little more depending on the veg you have used). Add some salt and pepper to season and roast for a further 25 minutes.

  4. Once ready, remove from the oven and prepare your cous cous. Place the cous cous in a heatproof bowl and mix a teaspoon of bouillon through it. Pour over boiling water to cover it by roughly 1cm. Cover the bowl with a tea-towel and a lid, then leave to steep for 10 minutes.

  5. When ready, remove the top and fluff it up with a fork.

  6. Place in a large serving dish with your roast veg, share onto plates and sprinkle more Nooch on top.
