Maple pork with pomegranate and mint couscous

Despite seeming a bit fancy, this is stupidly quick and easy to make: five ingredients and about 15 minutes cooking time total including prep.

Ingredients:

• Pork medallions
• Couscous (I used a Mediterranean flavour I happened to have in the pantry)
• Maple syrup (or glaze, we actually used golden syrup in maple flavour as that's what I had in!)
• Pomegranate seeds
• Fresh mint

To Make:

• Glaze uncooked pork with syrup and place in a griddle pan (I didn't bother leaving it to marinade although you could)
• Cook pork as normal, applying another layer of syrup each time you flip it
• Cook couscous according to instructions (in our case, add boiling water, cover for five minutes and then separate with fork)
• Sprinkle pomegranate and mint over couscous, add the pork and sprinkle another topping of pomegranate and mint

And that's all! Really tasty, quick and a bit fancy which makes it ideal to serve to mid-week  guests.

Steve is away this weekend and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't pretty excited to have a chilled weekend with just me, the boy and the bump! Happy Friday folks- we made it!
