Tasty tabouli: perfect as a versatile side for steaks or a convenient lunch with canned tuna or salmon.
Ingredients:
  • 150g (3/4 cup) couscous
  • 100ml olive oil
  • 1 tsp chicken style stock powder
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) boiling water
  • 1 large tomato, coarsely chopped
  • 1 large Lebanese cucumber, coarsely chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh continental parsley, coarsely chopped
  • 80g (1/2 cup) pitted kalamata olives
  • 4 pork loin medallions
Instructions:
  • In a medium bowl, combine couscous with 2 teaspoons of oil, using your fingertips to rub the oil into the couscous. Stir in the stock powder and water, then cover and set aside to soak for 5 minutes. Chill in the fridge for an additional 5 minutes. Finally, mix the couscous with tomato, cucumber, parsley, and olives in a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice, 80ml (1/3 cup) of oil, salt, and pepper to make a zesty dressing. Pour half of the dressing over the couscous mixture and mix well.
  • In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat the remaining oil. Season the pork with pepper and cook each side for 3-4 minutes for medium doneness, or until cooked to your preference. Serve the pork and tabouli on individual dishes and drizzle with the remaining dressing.
