Ingredients

• One peach (yes, you heard me)
• Handful of dried apricots, chopped
• Handful of fresh mint
• Three shallots, finely chopped
• One cob of corn (microwave for 4 minutes and slice kernels off)
• Handful of walnuts or pecans
• One chopped tomato
• One chopped capsicum/pepper
• The most delicious option EVER! Half a smoked chicken. Take the skin off and break into pieces.
• 250 g cous cous
• Hot water

Yoghurt Sauce

• 200 ml plain yoghurt
• 1 clove of garlic, chopped

Alternative Yoghurt Sauce

• 200 ml plain yoghurt
• 1 tblsp honey
• 1 tblsp sweet chilli sauce

Instructions

1. Chop everything.
2. Shred the chicken and try not to eat it all before serving.
3. Smoked chicken is expensive so always make sure you get two meals out of it. If we can show restraint, then you can too.
4. The secret to cous cous is its combination of fresh and dried fruit, nuts and fresh herbs (and the smoked chicken).
5. In a separate bowl, pour dry cous cous. Boil the jug. Cover the cous cous with water, leaving an additional half a centremetre over the top). Stir through with a fork and then WALK AWAY.
6. After 2 - 3 minutes, COME BACK. Stir through again with fork and taste. If still crunchy, add about 50 ml of hot water, stir through and leave for one minute. It is very easy to drown cous cous. It is much better to add a little bit of hot water at a time. Remember the golden rules: you can always add more but you can't take out.
7. When the cous cous is done (it will be moist, not crunchy). Stir everything together and serve with either yoghurt sauce.
