Method

Preheat an oven to 200°C.

Slice the marrow lengthways, scoop out seeds, and place on a roasting tray.

Place couscous, lemon juice, and enough boiling water to cover in a bowl.

Cover the bowl and allow couscous to soak for five minutes.

Heat olive oil in a pan and stir-fry onion for four minutes.

Add chorizo and fry for two minutes until crisp.

Mix the chorizo mixture, pepper, tomatoes, and herbs into the couscous.

Season the mixture and spoon it into the marrow halves.

Bake for 20 minutes until the marrow is tender.
