1 pound 5 ounces slightly marbled beefsteak
3 Tablespoons peanut oil
4 eggs

2 cups semolina
3 cups salt water
2 cups zucchini
1 Tablespoon oil
1 handful raisins (optional)

- Place the mutton and chicken pieces in the bottom section of a couscous pot. Add the carrots, turnips, celery root, tomatoes, onions, chick-peas, they, bay leaf, cloves and saffron. Cover with water up to ¾ of the height of the couscous pot. Bring to a boil. Simmer continuously while preparing the semolina.
- Pour the semolina into a large, deep dish. Sprinkle, little by little, with 1 cup of salt water, mixing well with the hands to separate the grains. When the water has been absorbed, pour the semolina into the top section of the couscous pot. Do not cover. Leave for 30 minutes.

- Add oil to the semolina and rub the grains between your fingers to grease the grains well. Return to the couscous pot and steam for 10 more minutes.
- Serve the semolina separately, mixed, if you like, with a handful of raisins that have been soaked for 2 hours. Serve the meat and vegetables in a large, shallow bowl, and the broth in a soup bowl with the chick-peas.
- Prepare a pungent sauce by mixing the harissa with a ladleful of broth.
