Roasted Veg and Couscous Salad

Reminded me very very much of the Baked Vegetables with an Aubergine Sauce from Nigel Slater's Tender, though neither as delicious nor as well-thought through.

Both recipes instruct you to bake vegetables in the oven and add harissa, cumin and nuts half-way through. Slater accompanied this with a wonderful aubergine dip that would have been a good addition to this recipe, too.

Furthermore, in this recipe they suggested bite-sized pices of butternut squash and red and yellow peppers for the same amount of time - of course the butternut squash wasn't ready yet when the peppers were. Additionally, they didn't mention anything about splashing a bit of oil on top, something that I've noticed makes the veggies cook much better.

On the other hand I have to admit that I couldn't find any harissa and I didn't have the time nor the recipe at hand to make harissa myself, like I did the last time. So we just followed a recipe found on the internet and used the main ingredients without really making harissa - the real harissa last time was much better.
