FOR THE COUS COUS

1 Heat the griddle pan, place a layer of vegetables on the pan and cook on all sides until charred and softened. When the first batch is cooked, remove and keep warm and continue to cook the vegetables. Toss in olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Keep warm.

2 Put the cous cous and shallots in a bowl. Pour over the boiling stock and stand for 15 minutes until absorbed.

3 Mix in the rest of the ingredients and season generously. Serve the griddled vegetables on a bed of cous cous, garnished with chopped parsley.
