Cooking Steps

Quarter the fennel and remove the tough core, then chop the fennel into thin strips. Set aside the fronds to use later as garnish.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the fennel for 1 - 2 minutes.
Add the giant couscous and plenty of salted water, then cover with the lid and cook for 13 - 14 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, quarter the courgette lengthways and slice it.
Finely chop the onion.
Peel and halve the garlic.
Heat a clean frying pan over medium-high heat and toast the pumpkin seeds until they start to pop. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion and courgette for 4 - 5 minutes, then deglaze with the white balsamic vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Remove the stems from the fresh herbs.
To a tall container, add the Grana Padano, garlic, fresh herbs, walnuts and extra virgin olive oil. Process until smooth using an immersion blender, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

Stir the pesto through the giant couscous and serve on plates.
Top the giant couscous with the arugula, vegetables, honeyed goat's cheese pearls and toasted pumpkin seeds.
Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.
