Stir through the chopped mint and coriander, and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Place a generous spoonful of couscous into the centre of each hot plate. Place a small pile of zucchini beside the couscous. Remove the tender merino from the oven and place a portion on the couscous. Spoon a little apricot chutney over the lamb, a little yoghurt and feta on the side, and lastly a drizzle of the smoked paprika and cumin oil to finish.
