Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Scatter the veg over a couple of baking trays, drizzle with half the oil, season, then rub the oil over the veg with your hands to coat. Roast for 30 mins until tender and beginning to brown.
  2. Meanwhile, fry the spices in the remaining oil for 1 min - they should sizzle and start to smell aromatic. Tip in the tomatoes, apricots, honey and a can of water. Simmer for 5 mins until the sauce is slightly reduced and the apricots plump, then stir in the veg and some seasoning. Serve with couscous or jacket potatoes.

IF YOU WANT TO USE A SLOW COOKER...

Give this Moroccan one pot some extra time. Mix the vegetables, oil, spices, tomatoes, apricots and honey in your slow cooker, cover and cook on Low for 6-8 hours until the veg is tender.

    Fantastic: Even the kids ate it! Froze really well and is a great freezer quickie for baked potatoes, couscus, rice and a side dish for anything asian as the cinnamon and cumin is set off beautifully with the sweetness of the dish. Great with spiced dry roasted meats.

    We thoroughly enjoyed this meal, the spices really made it that much more enjoyable. I used a whole can of tomatoes which made extra juice to mop up the baked potato. Would certainly make it again.

    Really good. Used mixed spice instead of cinnamon, cumin seeds not ground cumin, and sultanas instead of apricots, but still amazing. Will be using the tomato sauce as a base for various things now!

    Quite yummy and satisfying. I served with grilled lamb which went really well, and used squash too. Next time i'm going to add more vegetables (esp red onion) as I dont think there were enough.

    Very tasty. I didn't season it during cooking but a little salt does help to bring the flavours out.

    This was delicous but I did make a couple of changes. I roasted garlic with the veg and chucked some cumin seeds in too. I also cut the apricots down as thought it would be a bit sweet for my taste. Also does not really feed 4 people if they are all hungry.

    This is an excellent lunchbox filler! I make a huge amount then freeze portions in bags for filling a wrap. Put it in the fridge the night before and in the morning make up your wrap, microwave it at lunch and presto! Make it on a Sunday and you don't have to worry about lunches for the rest of the week but you might want to mix it up a little!
