6 servings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 pound butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 2-inch cubes
  • 1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons grated lime zest
  • 1 ¾ cups water
  • 1 (10 ounce) package dry couscous
  • salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon salted butter
  • 6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, divided
  • 6 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, divided
  • 6 tablespoons plain yogurt

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion and garlic in the hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes, squash, beans, tomatoes with juice, vegetable broth, cumin, and coriander; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until squash and potatoes are soft enough to eat, 30 to 50 minutes.
  • Ten minutes before the stew is finished cooking, bring 1 3/4 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in couscous; cover, and remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 minutes, then season with salt and stir in butter.
  • Remove stew from the heat and stir in lime zest, 1/2 of the cilantro, and 1/2 of the mint.
  • Serve stew next to couscous on a plate with a tablespoon of yogurt. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro and mint and serve with a lime wedge.
