INSTRUCTIONS

1
Roast the fennel

Preheat oven to 450°F. Combine fennel, 1 tbsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper on baking sheet and roast for 7 minutes. Add grapes and carrots, stir, and continue to roast until browned in places, 5 to 7 minutes.

2
Cook the couscous

Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot, just 1 tsp turmeric, and couscous and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and shallots are softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1¼ cups water and ¼ tsp salt and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until water is absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes.

3
Make the creamy tahini sauce

Whisk together yogurt, lemon juice, tahini, and a pinch of salt and pepper in small bowl.

4
Serve

Divide turmeric-toasted couscous between serving bowls and top with roasted fennel, carrots, and grapes. Serve with tahini sauce and lemon wedges. Enjoy!
