Ingredients
600g firm white fish fillets, skin removed, cut into 3cm pieces (see note)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large (500g) zucchini, cut into 3cm pieces
1 brown onion, finely chopped
1 cup fish stock
1 1/2 cups couscous
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
2 tablespoons fresh coriander sprigs
Chermoula sauce
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh coriander leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 eschalot, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small red chilli, chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
Method
Step 1 Make chermoula sauce: Place all chermoula ingredients in a small food processor. Process until a coarse paste forms.
Step 2 Place fish and chermoula sauce in a large bowl. Toss gently to coat.
Step 3 Heat half the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add zucchini. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Add onion to pan. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until onion has softened. Return zucchini to pan with stock and fish mixture. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 6 minutes until fish is just cooked. Season.
Step 4 Meanwhile, place couscous in a large heatproof bowl. Add boiling water and remaining oil. Cover. Set aside for 5 minutes or until liquid has absorbed. Using a fork, fluff to separate grains. Serve tagine with couscous and sprinkle with pine nuts and coriander.
