Couscous
Boil the kettle. Place the Couscous in a bowl with 100ml of boiling water. Stir through a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Cover and steam until rehydrated, 5-8 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Roughly chop the dried fruit and set aside.
SOME CRUMB
Whisk 1 egg in a shallow dish with a splash of water. In a separate shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, the crispy onion bits, the chopped pistachios, and seasoning. Pat the Beef dry with paper towel and coat in the egg first, then lightly coat in the crumb mixture.
CRISPY SCHNITTY
Place a pan over medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the crumbed schnitzel until browned, 30-60 seconds per side. Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel, and season.
LOADED SALAD
To the bowl with the cooked Couscous, add the juice from 1 lemon wedge, ½ the chopped parsley, a drizzle of olive oil, a sweetener, seasoning, the halved baby tomatoes, and the chopped dried fruit. Toss until combined.
ZESTY Yoghurt
In a small bowl, mix the Yoghurt with a squeeze of lemon juice, lemon zest (to taste) and seasoning. Set aside.
