Grill vegetables in batches until tender, about 2-3 minutes for each vegetable, allow more time for harder vegetables, set aside to cool. Cover sweet peppers (bell peppers) when hot in a separate bowl which will soften charred skin and making it easier to peel off outer skin. Cut into desired lengths for serving with couscous. 3. Prepare couscous as directed below. Chef’s note: Dish is an ideal example of Moroccan Jamaican fusion |
