How to Make Five A Day Vegetable Tagine

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Chop vegetables: 1 large butternut squash (cubed), 1 large red onion (wedged), 2 carrots (chopped), 1 head broccoli (florets), 1 red bell pepper (chopped), 1 cup Brussels sprouts (halved).
  3. Toss vegetables with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper on two large baking sheets. Ensure even coating.
  4. Roast for 30 minutes, until tender and slightly browned.
  5. While vegetables roast, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, ½ teaspoon turmeric, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and a pinch of saffron (optional). Fry for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  6. Stir in 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, 1 cup dried apricots, and 1 cup vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer.
  7. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until sauce slightly reduces and apricots are plump.
  8. Add the roasted vegetables to the pan. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  9. Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  10. Serve hot over couscous or with baked potatoes. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley (optional).
