Ingredients:2 and 1/2 cups couscous Method:Bring orange juice, water, sesame oil and stock powder to boil in a saucepan. Tip in the couscous, stir, replace the pan lid and set aside for 5 minutes. Fork through the couscous to separate the grains. Do this with a very light hand. Cool the couscous. In a large bowl mix the cold couscous with all the remaining ingredients apart from the salad dressing, the apple and the avocado. Set aside. When ready to serve simply add the avocado, apple, dressing and parmesan cheese. Mix through very carefully in order to keep the avocado pieces intact. Serves 5 - 6 as a whole meal. Serves 12 - 15 as a side salad. Notes:The quantity of dressing is personal. Maybe start with a couple of tablespoons and add more if you like a moister salad. You can vary the salad ingredients greatly in this recipe. Food Facts:Corn is an excellent carbohydrate, rich in vitamins A, B, and C and fibre. Carrots are native to Afghanistan.
