Moroccan Breakfast Couscous with Saffron Fruits and Yoghurt

Combine the orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg and caster sugar in a small pot and bring to the boil.

Place the couscous in a large bowl, pour over the hot orange juice mixture, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Allow to stand for 10 minutes.

Halve and stone the fruits and cut into wedges. Place the fruit and the other compote ingredients in a wide sauté pan and gently bring to the boil.

Reduce the heat to low and poach gently for 10-15 minutes until tender. The time will vary depending on the ripeness of the fruit.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool until just warm.

To serve: Roughly chop the nuts and stir half into the couscous, using a fork to loosen the grains as you go. Divide between serving plates. Scatter the remaining nuts over the top of the
couscous and dust with icing sugar.

Serve the warm compote and yoghurt in ramekins next to the couscous. Serves 4-6

To make your own thick, Greek-style yoghurt, line a sieve with clean, damp muslin. Sit the sieve over a bowl and pour in plain, unsweetened yoghurt. Refrigerate overnight.
In the morning, discard the whey in the bowl below and tip the thickened yoghurt into a bowl ready to serve.
