Preparation
1
Roast the Sweet Potato

  • Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the sweet potato into 2cm cubes. Add to a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Toss with oil, half the garlic and herb mix, salt and pepper.
  • Spread out in a single layer. When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn the tray halfway through. 

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

2
Cook the Couscous

  • Pour 600ml water (per 2P) into a pot, stir in the stock and bring to the boil.
  • Stir in the pearled couscous, bring back to the boil and simmer, covered, 12-15 mins.
  • Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve. 

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

3
Prep the Rest

  • Trim the cucumber, then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into small pieces.
  • Cut the tomato into 2cm chunks.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). 
  • Roughly chop the olives.
  • Crumble the Greek style cheese into small pieces.

4
Toss the salad

  • Toss the tomatoes, cucumber, olives, Greek style cheese, remaining garlic and herb spice mix with the parsley and pesto.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

5
Finishing Touches

  • Stir the cooked sweet potato through the pearled couscous.
  • Taste and season with salt and pepper. 

6
Divide and Serve

  • Divide the sweet potato couscous between bowls, adding the Greek style cheese and pesto salad on top.
  • Finish with a scattering of the crispy onion.
