Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/Fan 200°C/Gas 7.
  2. Place all the ingredients except the cauliflower in a large saucepan and bring to the boil over a high heat. Reduce the heat to medium–low, cover with a lid and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 35 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, place the cauliflower florets in a large roasting tray, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast for about 25–30 minutes, until tender and golden.
  4. Add the roasted cauliflower to the simmering chickpea tagine and simmer for 5 minutes, then taste and add more salt if necessary. Sprinkle with flaked almonds and coriander and serve with couscous.
