This savoury dish is easy to make using a ready-made Moroccan spice blend or make your own. I serve it on herby roasted vegetable couscous but it’s also good on rice. You could also add a salad or cooked seasonal green veggies.

Cooks Tip: Try the Moroccan seasoning on beef strips, and stuff into a wrap or pita bread drizzled with the lemony yogurt.
