  Well, I've cooked this a couple of times now and have to say what a fabulous combination of flavours! Like many other contributors I made them with beef because I had it handy and everything else is usually in the store cupboard. The lightness of the meatballs is quite divine and is wonderfully enhanced by fresh coriander. The dish also seems to lose very litttle by being frozen. I used a very generous 'pinch' of crushed chillis rather than chilli powder and have also enjoyed them served over pasta. Great with a morroccan style salad on the side. Good enough to serve to guests!

  Oh my gosh, absolutely divine. I made with pork mince (purely because it's cheaper) and halved the amount of tinned tomatoes and I thought that was the perfect amount of sauce. I never make couscous so was glad to find an exciting recipe with it in. Will definitely make again.

  Excellent, made with rice instead of cous cous (not too fond of it) and added finely chopped fresh chillis to the meatballs.

  Very tasty but don't use as much butter in the couscous. Otherwise excellent.

  Cooked this for my in-laws and husband - it was very tasty indeed and we all really enjoyed it. Substituted the lamb with beef mince to reduce the calorie content - and it worked very well. My mother-in-law even took the recipe and cooked it a week later for guests.

  Made this last night, I used beef mince instead of lamb and made the meatballs a couple of hours earlier putting them in the fridge to firm up. It turned out good my only gripe is it tasted quite sweet so next time I would add some fresh chilli and some salt as I'm not a big fan of sweet tasting meat dishes. Overall though an easy and filling dinner. For the couscous I put 200g in a bowl then poured over 250ml of chicken stock with a tsp of Harissa mixed in, covered and let that steam then when everything was ready to go I added a glug of olive oil, the juice of a lemon and some fresh coriander, delicious.
