STUFFED VEGGIES WITH COUSCOUS

For stuffing
- 250 g couscous
- 3 fresh onions
- 1 dry onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 small bunch of parsley
- 2 tablespoons of black currants

Cut and remove the lids from the veggies and empty the interior.

In a large bowl, finely chop tomatoes, parsley, onions and garlic. Add tomato juice, pine nut, raisins, salt, pepper and 40 ml. olive oil, mix and add the couscous and 50 ml. water.

Stuff the vegetables and place them in a large saucepan next to each other. In a bowl, mix 60 ml. olive oil, 100 ml. tomato juice, 150 ml. water, salt-pepper and pour over the veggies.

Place the saucepan on medium heat, for 3-4 minutes and then simmer for about 35 minutes, until the vegetables are softened or when the juices run out. Let cool and serve or you can eat it cold.

Notes
- You can add in the pot and a couple of potatoes cut into chunks.
- You can make it in the oven too.
