Instructions

  1. Wash the chicken, pat dry and cut into small pieces. If you like, you can marinate the meat with a little cumin and cinnamon.
  2. Cut the spring onions into rings and the ginger into very fine pieces (or grate finely). The cherry tomatoes can be quartered, if you take tomberries, they can stay whole.
  3. For the couscous, bring the vegetable stock with the cloves, cinnamon and cumin (amount as desired) to the boil. Put the couscous in a bowl and add the broth. Add the raisins to soften them. Cover and let soak.
  4. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the chicken, ginger and almonds. Season with a little salt. When the meat is done, add the spring onions and tomatoes. Fry briefly so that the tomatoes release a little of their juice.
  5. Finally, add the couscous (don`t forget to take the cloves out beforehand) and mix well. If necessary, season with salt and pepper. The dish can be eaten as a main course, cold as a salad or as a side dish.
