Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250°C and line two baking trays with baking paper.
• Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise into wedges. In a bowl, mix the sweet potato wedges, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the thyme leaves and the chilli flakes.
• In a second bowl mix the chickpeas with 1 tablespoon olive oil, smoked paprika and some salt.
• Place the sweet potatoes on one of the prepared baking trays so that they do not lie on top of each other and season with salt and pepper to taste. Then roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes in the upper third until they are soft and slightly brown at the corners.
• In the meantime, place the chickpeas on the second baking tray. Once the sweet potatoes have been roasted for about 10 minutes, add the chickpeas in the oven. Roast everything until the vegatables are chrisp on the outside. Afterwards take the baking trays out of the oven and put them aside.
• While the vegetables are roasting, place the couscous with the vegetable stock and harissa in a bowl. Pour 1.5 times the amount of boiling water over it. Leave to soak for 5 to 10 minutes until all the water has been absorbed. Stir occasionally.
• In the meantime prepare the yoghurt sauce. Chop the herbs finely and mix with the remaining ingredients in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
