1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoon chile

Add salt, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer (just under medium temperature, not too low) for 10-12 minutes until tender.
3
Cook couscous by placing in a bowl with equal amount of boiling water and covering immediately. Leave to cook while potato is simmering.
4
Prepare ginger and lemon.
5
Add everything except lemon zest and couscous to water and sweet potato and keep on cooking about 2 minutes.
