Time 1h42m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 21

¼ cup olive oil, or more as needed, divided
8 mutton chops, fat removed
4 chicken drumsticks
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 onions, quartered
water to cover
2 tablespoons ground turmeric
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
3 potatoes, cut into chunks
3 turnips, cut into chunks
3 carrots, sliced lengthwise and cut into chunks
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
2 tablespoons ras el hanout
1 (7 ounce) can chickpeas, drained
2 zucchini, sliced lengthwise and cut into chunks
5 sprigs cilantro, chopped
3 cups water
2 cups couscous
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons harissa

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season mutton chops and chicken drumsticks with salt and pepper; cook in batches with onions in the hot oil until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate.
  • Scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to release browned bits. Return mutton chops and chicken to the pot. Pour in enough water to cover; add turmeric, cumin, and coriander. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Stir potatoes, turnips, and carrots into the pot. Simmer, covered, until vegetables start to soften, about 10 minutes. Mix in tomato paste and ras el hanout; cook for 10 minutes. Stir in chickpeas, zucchini, and cilantro; continue cooking, covered, until zucchini is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a saucepan; remove from heat and stir in couscous and butter. Cover saucepan and let stand until water is absorbed completely, 5 to 10 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork and stir in 1 tablespoon olive oil. Transfer to a serving dish.
  • Ladle 2 scoops of cooking liquid into a bowl; mix in harissa until smooth.
  • Scoop vegetables onto a serving plate. Scoop mutton and chicken onto a separate plate. Serve alongside couscous, harissa sauce, and remaining cooking liquid in the pot.
