  1. ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Carrot and onion on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ½ of the NOMU rub, and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. Couscous

    Boil the kettle. Place the Couscous in a bowl with 50ml [100ml]|#7DA0D7 of boiling water. Stir through a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Cover and steam until rehydrated, 5-8 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  3. TOAST

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. PORK SCHNITZEL

    Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel, coat with the remaining rub, and season. Fry the pork until browned and cooked through, 30-60 seconds per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and remove from the pan. Cut into bite-sized pieces just before serving.

  5. JUST BEFORE SERVING

    In a bowl, combine the Couscous, roasted veggies, pork strips, sunflower seeds, olives, ½ of the oregano, a generous drizzle of olive oil, and season.

  6. DINNER IS READY

    Bowl up the loaded Couscous, top with dollops of the hummus, and garnish with the remaining oregano. Dig in, Chef!
