Cooking Steps
- Bring the water to a boil in a lidded pot or saucepan and crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amounts). Weigh the couscous. Take the pan off the heat and transfer the couscous to the stock. Leave to soak for 10 minutes with the lid on. Fluff through the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
- Cut the beetroot into wedges.
- Chop the dill and mint roughly.
- Wash and zest the lemon and cut it into quarters.
- Heat a dry frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast the shaved almonds for 1 - 2 minutes or until golden brown.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Fry the beetroot for 3 - 4 minutes. Add the Middle Eastern spice mix and fry for 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper.
- Crumble the feta into a bowl. Add the yogurt and season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
- In a salad bowl, mix the fried beetroot, salad leaves, dill, mint, extra virgin olive oil and 1 lemon wedge per person (see Tip).
- Season the salad with salt and pepper.
Tip: feel free to add some more lemon juice if preferred.
- Serve the salad on deep plates.
- Divide the hot smoked salmon over the salad.
- Garnish with the feta yogurt and squeeze the leftover lime over the salad.
- Scatter over the toasted shaved almonds.
