• Boil the kettle. Preheat BBQ to high heat. • Cut any larger broccoli florets in half. • Zest lemon to get a pinch, then halve. • In a medium bowl, combine broccoli and a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. • SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you’re sensitive to heat! To a second medium bowl, combine pork mince, chermoula spice blend, fine breadcrumbs and the egg. • Using damp hands, roll pork mixture into koftas about 8cm long and 2.5cm thick (3 per person).
• In a large heatproof bowl, add couscous and chicken-style stock powder. • Add the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 11/2 cups for 2 people) and stir to combine. Immediately cover with a plate and leave for 5 minutes. • Fluff up with a fork and set aside.
• When BBQ is hot, grill koftas, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred, 8-10 minutes.
NO BBQ? Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook koftas until just cooked through, 10-12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill broccoli, turning occasionally, until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Grill lemon, cut-side down, until charred, 2-3 minutes.
No BBQ? Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook broccoli, tossing occasionally, until tender, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Increase heat to high, then cook lemon, cut-side down, until charred, 1-2 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine Greek-style yoghurt and lemon zest. • To the bowl with the couscous, add broccoli, mixed salad leaves, a generous squeeze of charred lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide charred broccoli couscous between bowls. Top with chermoula pork kofta. • Dollop over lemon yoghurt. Enjoy!
