Chef's Tips
This is traditionally served with couscous but I don't like couscous particularly so I always serve with rice. Mashed potato is good too! (I love mash with most things which have a gravy).
This is really nice! I did add a tiny bit of Chilli Powder to give it a kick and served it with Brown Rice!!! It was lovely and quick to do.
