Method

Step 1 of 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a frying pan, add the onion, garlic and spices and cook over a medium heat, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes until golden. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a saucepan and add the chickpeas, tomatoes, stock and saffron. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 2 of 3

Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan, add the eggplant and cook over a high heat, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes until browned. Add to the stew and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes.

Step 3 of 3

Stir in the mushrooms and figs and simmer gently, uncovered, for a further 20 minutes. Stir in the fresh coriander and adjust the seasoning. Serve with steamed couscous.
