This dish is great and so tasty
I was really looking forward to this and unfortunately was a little dissappointed. It tasted ok, a little on the bland side but I think I can tweak it to give it more flavour.
I have updated this recipe to make it a bit more user friendly.
I have added an onion and 2 cloves of garlic (recipe wont update the new ingredients for some reason
)
Also have worked out Couscous is great when done in the varoma at the same time
Chickpeas would be really nice too Purple Turtle
The flavours of the stew was surprisingly quite good given that no onion or garlic were included (a usual inclusion for most of the things I cook). Am still getting familiar with the TM, so perhaps I did something wrong, but I found that the chicken stuck on the butterfly. Am going to try adding chickpeas in next time.

think it might be better just to heat the stock in the TM BOWL and then add the couscous. just mix for 10 seconds on reverse to combine then let it sit with the lid on until it absorbs it all. sorry for the problem. the first time i did it it was fine then the last time i did it i had the same problem.
i will adjust the recipe when iget TIME
I had no luck with this at all. My cous cous was big lumps at the end, and I used the butterfly. What am I doing wrong?
Great dish - loved it - except I forgot to use the butterfly for the cous cous so it didn't mix properly and got very stuck together... my fault!! Flavours were great though!
This is a recipe i have been making for my family for ages and only just converted to the Thermomix. i think it is just as good and a lot quicker in the Thermomix. Everyone loves it at home
if you want to make it even quicker chop your chorizo and zucchini on speed 5 for about 3 secs.
i prefer mine sliced thinly so you can taste all the flavours separately
