Ingredients

  1. 300 g prawns, peeled and deveined
  2. 1/2 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped
  3. 3 tbsp olive oil
  4. 1 tsp ground cumin
  5. 2 garlic cloves, minced
  6. Juice of 1 lemon
  7. 1 tsp paprika
  8. 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  9. 1 cup pearl couscous
  10. 2 cups vegetable or chicken stock
  11. Salt and pepper, to taste
  12. Extra chopped coriander or parsley, for garnish

Method

  1. In a small bowl, combine the chopped coriander, oil, cumin, garlic, lemon juice, paprika, and turmeric. In a separate medium bowl, combine the prawns with half of the coriander mixture.
  2. Heat the remaining oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the couscous and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes or until the couscous is
    tender. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes to steam. Stir in the remaining coriander mixture.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a barbecue flat plate or chargrill on
    medium-high. Thread the prawns onto 12 metal or soaked bamboo skewers. Cook the prawns for 2 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked
    through.
  4. Divide the couscous among serving plates. Top with the prawn skewers and sprinkle with coriander sprigs. Serve with yoghurt and lemon wedges.

Chef's Tip

Chermoula prawns are all about bold herbs, warm spices, and fresh citrus working together to enhance the natural sweetness of the seafood. Marinating the prawns briefly allows the garlic, cumin, paprika, and lemon to infuse without overpowering their delicate flavour. Pearl couscous adds a soft, hearty texture that absorbs the aromatic dressing beautifully, creating a vibrant Mediterranean-style dish full of freshness and warmth.
