Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Remove the seeds from the pepper, and chop into strips about 1 to 2 inches long. Cut the eggplant crossways into rounds about 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick, and cut each one into 6 to 8 even chunks. Peel the onion, and chop into 8 portions. Trim the zucchini, and cut into thick slices.
- Heat grill pan over a high heat with a generous splash of olive oil. When it is very hot, add all the vegetables to the pan. Press down occasionally to get grill lines across them. Turn occasionally to prevent burning. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are evenly browned and cooked through.
- Stir broad beans into the vegetables. Add chopped tomatoes, and vinegar. Simmer for a few minutes while the couscous is prepared.
- Place couscous into a medium bowl. Add boiling vegetable stock, and stir with a fork. Keep lifting the couscous occasionally to prevent it sticking. It only takes 2 to 3 minutes to become soft. Place couscous in a large bowl or serving platter, and serve the vegetables on top.

If the vegetables were to be grilled on a regular grill instead of the stove then the recipe would be very good, however I thought the stove top didn’t do it justice.

I was disappointed in this dish. The sauce was overwhelming and none of the vegtables retained an individual flavor or texture.
Very delicious! I prepared this meal for my vegetarian friend, but I liked the dish as much as her. Great sauce, wonderful taste combinations. Pretty easy to make.
Outstanding! ( I added minced garlic and fresh basil during simmering for a little more zip.)
since i read the other reviews first, i cooked the vegetables shorter which helped keep the flavors, yet there were still "grill lines" - also I used just a few table spoons of flavorful tomato ...
This tasted like vegetables with balsamic vinegar on them, which is fine if that's what you want. I probably won't make it again though. I also realized I don't like couscous very much, which ...
This was pretty good. I would probably add some garlic or something more to flavour it but it was a change from my normal cooking to taste the vegetables so clearly without curry or spice or sau...
