Mince the onion, green bell pepper, and carrots. It will be easier if you use a food processor, if you have one.
3
Put a little olive oil into a skillet and gently fry the vegetables over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring from time to time.
4
Add the ground meat to the skillet and season with a few pinches of salt and, optionally, a little pepper. Use a wooden spoon to mix all the ingredients together and cook for several minutes.
5
Add the tomato sauce and cook on low-medium heat for 5–7 minutes. Check that the vegetables are juicy, the meat is done, and the seasoning is to your liking. Turn off the heat and serve.
6
Place the couscous in a tray or on a plate and top with the ground meat and vegetables. It’s really that easy
