Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
- Place the couscous in a bowl. Finely chop and add the preserved lemon(s), removing any pips, then just cover with boiling kettle water, pop a plate on top and leave to fluff up.
- Wash the carrots and quarter lengthways. Peel, halve and finely slice the onion. Toss both in a shallow bowl with the vinegar and a good pinch of sea salt to draw out excess moisture (you’ll drain the liquor off, so don’t worry about the amount of salt).
- Pick and finely chop most of the mint leaves and stir through the couscous, fluffing it up with a fork, then season to perfection.
- Unroll the filo pastry and spoon one quarter of the couscous on to the middle of one sheet. Flatten into a square, then fold the filo up around it, creating a square parcel.
- Repeat with the remaining couscous and filo, then place the parcels on a tray and bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden and crisp – this is a cute way to serve couscous and adds epic texture to the salad.
- In a bowl, mix the yoghurt, peanut butter, 2 teaspoons of preserved lemon liquor from the jar and the lime juice, loosening with a splash of water, if needed.
- Loosen the harissa with 1 tablespoon of oil in a little bowl. Crush the pistachios in a pestle and mortar. Peel the oranges and cut into thin rounds. Wash the lettuces, trim the bases, then cut the round lettuce into quarters and the little gems in half.
- Now the fun bit: to serve, divide the lettuce between your plates and drizzle over the peanutty yoghurt dressing.
- Drain and divide up the pickled carrots and onions, then tear each filo parcel in half and add to the plates with a few orange slices.
- Drizzle the parcels with harissa oil, scatter with pistachios, pick over the remaining mint leaves, then mix it all up and tuck in!
