Ingredients

  • 6 corn cobs

    100 gm cous cous


    For the Dressing:

    3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed            

    2 Tbsp olive oil

    Juice of 1 lemon                             

    1/2 tsp onion seeds

    1/4 tsp salt                                     

    4 curry leaves (optional)

    1 tsp sugar                                   

    1/2 tsp salt

    1 green chili, seeded and finely chopped      

    8-10 roasted peanuts, skinned and

    1/2 tsp ground black pepper crushed

    25 gm coriander leaves, washed and chopped.

Method

First, make the dressing. 

Put all of the ingredients into a jar with a lid.  Shake well, and brush it on to the corncobs just before you barbecue or grill them. 

They will be ready when the kernels are tender and lightly browned.

For the couscous salad, bring to the boil 500ml/18fl oz water with a dash of oil.

Stir in the couscous, cover and let it stand for 5 minutes. 

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small pan, then put in the onion seeds, curry leaves, salt and peanuts. 

Stir for a minute then add the couscous and cook gently for 4 minutes. 

Scrape the couscous into a serving bowl, scatter over the coriander leaves and serve with the corn.
