step 1
In a large bowl, season the lamb mince (1 pack) well with salt and pepper, then add 1 tbsp cumin (1 tbsp) and a handful of the parsley (15 g).
step 2
Roll the lamb into balls. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat.
step 3
Fry the lamb meatballs for 6-8 minutes until golden, then remove from the pan, keeping the oil, and set aside.
step 4
Using the same pan, add the onion (1) and fry for a few minutes until softened.
step 5
Add the rest of the cumin (1 tbsp) and the sugar (1 tbsp), season with salt and pepper, then add the chopped tomatoes (2 tins). Fill half of one of the tomato tins with water and add that to the pan.
step 6
Add the meatballs back into the pan with a splash more water and simmer for 20 minutes.
step 7
Meanwhile, cook the veg (1 pack) in the oven according to the pack instructions. Prepare the couscous (300 g) according to the pack instructions in a large bowl
