In a large bowl, toss the diced lamb with the flour, 1 tsp Lebanese spice blend and a pinch of salt. In a large flameproof casserole dish or saucepan, heat 1 tbsp oil over a medium-high heat and fry the lamb for 5 minutes, or until golden and seared on all sides. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the lamb to a plate, then add the remaining oil to the pan and fry the onion, garlic and aubergine for 5-10 minutes, until golden and softened.
Return the seared lamb to the pan, along with the remaining 2 tsp spice blend, the chopped tomatoes and stock. Cover and cook over a medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the lamb is tender (about 45 minutes), being careful not to boil the lamb, as that will make it tough.
About 10 minutes before the stew is ready, boil the kettle. Put the couscous in a large heatproof bowl and stir in a pinch of salt. Pour over 350ml just-boiled water, cover with a plate and set aside for 5 minutes. To serve, divide the couscous and stew between 4 bowls, then sprinkle over the cheese and parsley.
Cook's Tip
To test if your lamb (or any slow-cooked meat) is tender, push a sharp knife into the meat – it should go in with very little resistance. If not, cook the meat in 15-minute bursts until it does.
Health Hack
Couscous is made from wheat flour and semolina that is moistened and rolled together into tiny balls (a bit like flecks of pasta). It’s the ultimate speed carb because it doesn’t require cooking and takes just 5 minutes to rehydrate in hot water. Boost your nutrient intake by adding some cooked chickpeas, flaked almonds, pomegranate seeds or sliced olives.
Paolo Leo Primitivo di Manduria, a beautifully balanced red with an intense bouquet of dark berry fruits, with blackcurrants, blackberries and black cherries bursting through on the palate.
