Go vegetarian today and make this delicious roasted eggplant with couscous. Season the couscous with our special couscous spice mix, a combination of dried vegetables and spices. It's the perfect seasoning for vegetarian dishes.

Preparation

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2

Mix 2 tablespoons of oil with the black pepper. Halve the eggplants lengthwise and cut them crosswise. Place them in a baking dish and brush the cut side of the eggplants with olive oil. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes.

3

Peel and finely chop the garlic. Combine the garlic, ground cumin, lemon juice, tahini, and remaining olive oil into a sauce.

4

Crumble the (plant-based) mozzarella or soft goat cheese. Remove the leaves from the mint sprigs. Toast the almond shavings in a dry frying pan until golden brown.

5

Boil the recommended amount of water for the couscous, as directed on the package. Add the couscous to the water along with the World Spice Meal - Couscous. Cover the pan and let it sit for 5 minutes.

6

Fluff the couscous with a fork. Remove the eggplants from the oven and place them on a plate. Divide the couscous over the eggplants. Sprinkle with the (plant-based) mozzarella or soft goat cheese, slivered almonds, and pomegranate seeds. Garnish with the tahini sauce and fresh mint leaves.
