Instructions

Step 1

Mix all of the spice mix ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Spray a large heavy based pan with some cooking spray and place over a medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and cook for 5 minutes until lightly browned (you may need to do this in batches.)

Step 3

When all the vegetables are browned, return them to the pan (if you cooked them in batches), add the garlic and cook for a few more minutes. Add the Moroccan spice mix and stir for a couple of minutes (keep any leftover seasoning in an airtight container for future use), then stir in the chopped tomatoes and stock. Bring to a simmer, stir in the apricots, cover and turn down the heat to low. Cook for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Stir in the chickpeas, cook for another 5 minutes, then taste and season with salt, if necessary. Serve.
