Ingredients

2 cups Couscous
1 pound Lamb or Beef
1 large Onions
2 large Carrots
1 large Zucchini
2 cups Tomatoes
1 tsp Spices
1/4 cup Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper

Method

Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high until shimmering, about 2 minutes, then add onion and cook stirring occasionally until golden-brown, 6–8 minutes.
Add lamb or beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
Add carrots and zucchini and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften.
Add tomatoes, spices, salt, and black pepper, and stir to combine, then cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
Add couscous to the pot, cover with a lid, and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is tender, 10–12 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Serve the couscous hot, topped with the meat and vegetable mixture, and garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
