Camel's Couscous

an incredible dish from the distant lands of morocco! our childhood friend ciara was the inspiration for tonight's meal. after she talked about her mother maeve's wonderous moroccan couscous dish, we knew we had to try it out for ourselves! and oh how our tongues rejoiced!

3 veggie stock cubes in some water
1 large red onion
4 cloves medium-sized garlic

1 tomato
handful raisins
2 cans chickpeas
generous sprinkle of pepper
1 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp coriander
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp cinnamon
juice of half a lemon
