Method

Step 1 of 4

Preheat oven to 200°C. Place couscous in a small bowl and pour over stock or water. Cover and set aside for 5 minutes.

Step 2 of 4

Cut tops from capsicums and reserve (if necessary, trim a little from the bases so they will stand up). Remove seeds and membranes. Place in a baking dish so they fit snugly together.

Step 3 of 4

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the prawns, mushroom and garlic and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes or until prawns have changed colour. Remove from heat.

Step 4 of 4

Using a fork, stir couscous to separate grains and fluff up. Add the prawn mixture, onion, tomato, parsley, lemon juice and cheese, then stir to combine. Spoon mixture into capsicums and cover with tops, then drizzle with extra oil. Bake for 45 minutes or until capsicums are soft. Serve.
