Roasted Cauliflower Couscous Salad with Ajvar, Photography Gino Galea
For my #recipeoftheday in today’s Times of Malta, I use Ajvar, a piquant spread of red peppers. It is also available as a mild paste.

![The weather is changing and here comes the autumn and some delicious roasts. Sprinkling some raw couscous on fennel and sesame seed potatoes before roasting them makes them extra crunchy and so soft inside.
300g potatoes, chopped with skin on
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons uncooked couscous
1 teaspoon fresh or dried herbs [optional]
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2 tablespoon fennel seeds
Sea Salt
Prepare an oven dish by greasing with a tablespoon of olive oil. In a large bowl toss the potatoes with the olive oil, herbs and salt if you are using it. Finally add the raw couscous and toss again. Use your hands to mix the potatoes and ensure that they are consistently covered.
Place in a preheated oven at 220C for 35 minutes. Spinkle with more sea salt if desired, fennel and sesame seeds.
Serve hot or cold with drinks and a toothpick or as a side to a main meal. The inside remains soft and so creamy !
