Steps:
- Heat some oil in a roasting tray and then add the onions and fry for about 5 mins until just softened. While you're frying, add the saffron strands to the stock if using, so the flavour and colour infuses. (If you are making the Fragrant chicken too (see 'Goes well with') use the same pan to add flavour to this dish and leave the juices in there, but you can tip out some of the chicken fat if you like).
- Tip the chilli into the tray, fry for 1 min more, then take off the heat. Add the couscous and stock, then cover with cling film for 10 mins. Once the couscous has absorbed all the stock, quickly chop the coriander (if you chop it too soon it will start to wilt), then fork it through the couscous with the almonds, dates and lemon juice and serve straight away. To serve cold, leave to cool, then add the chopped coriander just before eating.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, toast the almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring constantly.
- If you don't have ground coriander, you can use whole coriander seeds. Just toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, until fragrant, and then grind them in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice will give the couscous a brighter flavor than bottled lemon juice.
- If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro. Just add it to the couscous along with the other spices.
- Serve the couscous warm or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish.

Almond coriander couscous is a flavorful and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken or vegetables. With its combination of nutty almonds, aromatic coriander, and fresh lemon, this couscous is sure to please everyone at the table.
