Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
- Pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with salt, pepper and 1 tsp (2 tsp) Moroccan Spice Blend.
- To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add salmon. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil over top.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until cooked through.**
- Meanwhile, to a medium pot, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and half the stock powder. Season with salt and bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, stir in couscous. Remove the pot from heat, then cover and set couscous aside for 5 min to rehydrate.
- Meanwhile, peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Over a small bowl, drain olives, reserving brine. Roughly chop olives. Set brine aside.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and carrots, raisins and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) water. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates and carrots begin to soften. (TIP: If carrots are browning too quickly, reduce heat to medium.)
- Add onions. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to medium-low.
- Sprinkle veggies with remaining stock powder, remaining Moroccan Spice Blend, olives, tomato sauce base, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice and 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until veggies are tender and sauce thickens slightly.
- Fluff couscous and stir in half the cilantro, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) olive brine and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Discard any remaining olive brine.
- In a small bowl, combine yogurt sauce and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) lemon zest.
- Divide couscous and saucy veggies between bowls. Top with salmon.
- Drizzle yogurt sauce over salmon.
- Sprinkle with remaining cilantro.
- Serve a lemon wedge alongside.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The Moroccan spice blend and yogurt sauce are highlights, with reviewers noting the yogurt really elevates the dish. Some found the overall flavour milder than expected, and a few felt the vegetable combination was an unusual pairing with salmon.
- Ease of prep: Most found the dish straightforward to prepare, though several noted it takes longer than the estimated time on the recipe card.
- Suggestions: Consider moving the raisins into the couscous rather than the saucy veggies for a sweeter balance. If the tomato sauce tastes tart, add a small pinch of sugar to round it out. Some reviewers added extra vegetables like red pepper and zucchini to bulk up the dish.
- Leftovers: Seniors noted the portions were generous enough to enjoy leftovers the next day.
- Couscous tip: Prepare the couscous last so it stays warm when served.
