Get prepped
1

Thinly slice the red onion (see ingredients). In a small bowl, combine the rice wine vinegar anda good pinch of sugar and salt. Scrunch the red onion in your hands, then add to the pickling liquid. Add just enough water to cover the onion. Stir to coat and set aside until serving. Finely chop the garlic. Grate the carrot (see ingredients). Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

Make the salsa
2

In a small bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes and fetta cubes. Drizzle with a little olive oil and toss to combine. Season to taste.

Cook the carrot couscous
3

Melt the butter with a drizzle of olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add the carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and crumbled chicken stock (1 cube for 2 people / 2 cubes for 4 people). Bring to the boil. Add the couscous, stir to combine then cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside until the water has absorbed, 5 minutes.

Cook the pork
4

In a large bowl, combine the chermoula spice blend and some Greek-style yoghurt (1 tbs for 2 people / 2 tbs for 4 people). Drizzle with olive oil, season with pepper and add the pork strips. Toss to coat. Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook the pork strips, in batches, until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes.

Finish the couscous

Fluff the couscous up with a fork and stir through the baby spinach.

Serve up
