Toasted Miso Couscous with sautéed carrots, onion, chickpeas, mushrooms, and kale is a simple but rich meal!
Ingredients
Time: 45 minutes Serves: 3-4
Toasted Miso Couscous
1 cup couscous
1 1/2 cup water
2 Tbs red miso paste
1 Tbs soy sauce
4 bay leaves
3-4 garlic cloves
1/2 yellow onion, diced
1 large carrot, diced
1 cup broccoli florets, chopped
1/2 cup mushrooms, chopped
2 cups kale, stems removed & chopped
1 can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp marjoram
Salt & black pepper to taste
Directions
In a small pot, mix together the water, miso, soy sauce, bay leaves, and garlic. Allow the broth to come to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare your vegetables and drain the chickpeas.
After the broth has simmered, in a small skillet, set heat to medium-high.
Begin toasting the couscous in the skillet, stirring every 1-2 minutes until lightly golden brown. It should only take 5-7 minutes.
Once the couscous is toasted, add it gradually to the broth (no heat, but you may leave it on the same burner where the broth simmered to keep it warm). The broth will steam and bubble, but continually stir the couscous into the broth. Set heat to low and whisk the couscous until it is fully absorbed in the broth. The couscous should be ready in 10-12 minutes.
While your couscous is simmering, you may sauté the vegetables in another skillet starting with the onion. Cook for 4-5 minutes before adding the carrots. Stir together for another 4-5 minutes, then add the broccoli, mushrooms, chickpeas and seasonings.
Sauté the vegetables until tender. Toward the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the kale and stir in until lightly wilted. Taste and adjust seasoning.

Vegan Rogan Josh is a plant-based take on a Kashmiri lamb curry cooked in a creamy tomato-based sauce and spices. If you’re using tofu, we recommend marinating it in advance. If you want to skip out on the coconut milk, you could use just tomato sauce or try an alternative milk such as heavy cream. The recipe is referenced from the book Fake Meat by Isa Chandra Moskowitz.
Optional toppings: pickled red onions, sliced almonds, minced cilantro
Directions
Begin by preparing your protein in a skillet, then set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium pot (at least 4-quart), set heat to medium.
Once hot, lightly coat the bottom of the pot in olive oil and begin sautéeing the onion with a pinch of salt for 5-7 minutes. Next, add the fennel and bay leaves. Sauté together for another minute before adding garlic and ginger and cook for 2 more minutes.
Next, add the curry powder, garam masala, paprikas, and toss them to coat the onion, garlic, and ginger. Pour in a little bit of the vegetable broth to deglaze the pan.
Then, add the lentils, 1 tsp salt, tomato paste, and the remainder of the vegetable broth. Cover the pot with a lid and bring to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce heat to a low simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the lentils are tender.
Next, add in the coconut milk, lime juice, and your seared protein. Turn off the heat, but cover with a lid and allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
Remove the bay leaves before serving, taste, and adjust seasoning as desired.
