Moroccan Beef with Couscous

This is an easy and tasty recipe. I have cooked this when camping as it pretty much only needs one pot on the stove which makes washing up easy too.

1 tbs oil
2 onions
3 cloves garlic, crushed
500g blade steak
800 g tin of tomatoes
1/3 cup of lemon juice
2 cinnamon sticks
2 tsp of ground coriander
2 cups of beef stock
1 tbs oregano leaves

2 cups of couscous
2 cups of boiling water
1 tbs butter
1 handful of toasted pinenuts or almonds

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Addd onions and garlic and cook for 4 minutes or until golden. Add meat to pan and cook for 5 minutes until sealed. Add tomatoes, lemon juice, cinnamon, coriander, stock and oregano to pan and allow to sinner for 45 minutes.

Place couscous, water and butter in a bowl and allow to stand for 2 minutes. Add some toasted almonds (or pinenuts) if desired.

Serves 4
