This is absolutely delicious!
Wonderful combination of spices and herbs. Well worth the effort.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe! The couscous is divine and defintiely worth the effort. I made my own Ras el Hanout, which is easy peasy in the Thermomix (and you can then store for future moroccan dishes such as burgers, koftas etc), so DO GIVE THIS A TRY!
Here's my mix for Ras El Hanout - all ingredients in TM bowl and mill (sp9, 10-20 seconds) until just right:
