COUSCOUS & STOCK
Boil the kettle. Using a shallow bowl, submerge the couscous in 125ml of boiling water and season. Add a drizzle of oil and gently stir through with a fork. Cover with a plate and set aside to steam for 5-8 minutes until tender. Once cooked, fluff up with the fork. Dilute the stock with 80ml of boiling water.
PORK PARTY
While the couscous is steaming, pat the pork schnitzel dry with paper towel and season. Place the spiced flour (lightly seasoned) in a shallow dish. Coat the schnitzel in the spiced flour, dusting off any excess. Place a pan (large enough for the couscous) over a medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the schnitzel for 1-2 minutes per side until cooked through and golden. Add the rinsed sage leaves, a knob of butter, and a squeeze of lemon juice and fry for 1-2 minutes until crispy. Remove the sage leaves and schnitzel from the pan on completion (reserving the butter and oil in the pan), cover with a plate to keep warm, and rest the schnitzel for 3-5 minutes before slicing.
AT THE SAUCE
Keeping the pan on the heat (with the remaining butter and oil), add the grated garlic. Fry for 30-60 seconds, until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the white wine and leave to reduce until almost all evaporated. Pour in the diluted stock and bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced slightly. Season with a squeeze of lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the cooked couscous, and ½ the chopped parsley. Mix until fully combined.
A FRESH START
In a salad bowl, toss the rinsed green leaves and halved tomatoes with some oil, a squeeze of lemon juice and some seasoning.
