1.Place couscous in a large heatproof bowl. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large frying pan over moderate heat. Add onion; cook and stir for 3 minutes or until softened.

Bring to the boil over moderate heat. Cook for 2 minutes or until tender.

4.Heat remaining oil in pan. Add zucchini and remaining seasoning; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until tender. Return beef to pan; cook and stir for 30 seconds or until heated. Divide couscous among serving bowls. Top with beef mixture and mint. Serve with lemon wedges.
