Steps:

  • Place the couscous in a large bowl with the dried fruit, chilli, orange and lemon zest and ground spice.
  • Combine orange and lemon juice in a jug with vinegar, oils and enough boiling water to make up 1 cup (250ml), stirring well. Pour over couscous, then season. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, sealing the edges, then leave for 5 minutes. As the couscous soaks up the hot liquid, it will soak up all the strong aromatic flavours. Remove the wrap and fluff up couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
  • Add the nuts, sesame seeds, spring onion, cucumber, herbs and rocket, then stir with a fork to combine. Check seasoning, then add more olive oil, lemon juice or salt and pepper, if necessary.
  • * Dried sour cherries are available from gourmet food shops.
