  • 1 aubergine, cut into cubes
  • 200g couscous

  • Pre-heat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Brush both sides of each trout fillet with 1 tbsp of the oil and squeeze on a few drops of the lemon juice. Set aside.

  • Toss all the vegetables in the rest of the oil and put in a large roasting tin. Season then roast in the oven for 35 minutes, giving everything a good stir after 15 minutes.

  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan and cook the trout for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily.

  • Meanwhile, put the couscous in a pan with 250ml boiling water. Stir and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside for 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork.

  • Mix the vegetables with the couscous, zest, a squeeze of lemon juice and the parsley. Serve with the trout.
