Tahini Pork & Fetta

Tahini Pork & Fetta

with Herby Couscous & Lemon Yoghurt

4.1
(509)

There is couscous and then there is couscous flavoured with garlic and herbs. The key here is to cook it to fluffy perfection while adding aromatic garlic and bright parsley and lemon juice. It serves as the perfect bed for the juicy, tahini-loving pork, with a scattering of fresh veggies and fetta to keep everything interesting.

Cooking Steps

Marinate the pork
1

Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Slice the pork loin steaks into 1cm strips. In a medium bowl, combine the pork strips, soy sauce, honey, 1/2 the tahini and 1/2 the garlic. Drizzle with olive oil and season with a pinch of pepper. Mix well and set aside. TIP: If you have time, let the pork marinate for 10-15 minutes to increase the flavour.

Cook the couscous
2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over a medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the water and the crumbled chicken stock (1/2 cube for 2 people / 1 cube for 4 people) and bring to the boil. Add the couscous and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside for 5 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff up with a fork and set aside, uncovered, to cool slightly.

While the couscous is cooking, finely chop the tomato and cucumber. Finely chop the parsley. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yoghurt, a squeeze of lemon juice and the remaining tahini. Drizzle with olive oil, season to taste with salt and pepper and stir to combine. Set aside.

Finish the couscous
4

Add 1/2 the parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice to the couscous. TIP: Add as much or as little lemon juice as you like. Drizzle with olive oil, season to taste with salt and pepper and stir to combine.

Cook the pork
5

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. When the oil is hot, use tongs to gently shake off any excess tahini mixture from the pork, then add the pork to the pan and cook, tossing, for 2-3 minutes or until browned. Add the tahini mixture from the bowl and cook, stirring, for 1 minute, or until bubbling.

Serve up
6

Divide the tahini pork and herby couscous between plates. Scatter over the tomato and cucumber. Spoon over the sauce from the pan and top with the remaining parsley. Crumble over the fetta and serve with the lemon-tahini yoghurt.
