COUSCOUS MANGO MOUSSE
Steps:
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the water to a boil. Add the couscous in a stream. Stir once. Remove from the heat. Cover and let stand until the couscous is tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Mix in 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Cover tightly and set aside.
- Scrub one of the oranges under running water and pat dry. With a vegetable peeler, remove the zest, being careful not to peel away any of the white pith. Finely mince the zest. Set aside.
- Squeeze the oranges to obtain about 3/4 cup of juice. Strain through a medium-meshed sieve into a small saucepan. Over medium heat, boil down the juice until it has reduced to about 2 tablespoons, and has the consistency of molten honey, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the Cointreau. Set aside.
- Peel the mango and cut the flesh away from the seed. Cut half into thin wedges and coarsely dice the rest. Set aside.
- In a chilled metal bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Fold in the vanilla and the remaining sugar. Refrigerate 1 cup of the whipped cream for serving. In a medium bowl, combine the rest of the whipped cream with the yogurt and the diced mango. Refrigerate.
- Before serving, combine the yogurt-mango mixture with the couscous. Spoon equal amounts into 6 parfait glasses or small bowls. Top each dessert with a generous dollop of the reserved whipped cream and mango wedges. Drizzle with orange-Cointreau sauce, sprinkle with minced orange zest, and serve.
GRILLED POLENTA ROUNDS WITH AVOCADO SALSA
I found this recipe in the Australian Woman's Day magazine. I made them as an appetiser for a dinner party and they were well received. They are quick and easy to make and can be prepared well before guests arrive. I added a whole avocado into the salsa because I love it. The only other change I would consider would be to use tomato in place of some or all of the capsicum in the salsa. I like capsicum, just not as a main ingredient! Cooking time includes the 3 hours chilling time.

AVOCADO MANGO SALSA
Yowzers! Sweet and hot salsa with tangy mangoes and habaneros. Great with pork, chicken or fish or just with chips. You can omit the habaneros and add red bell peppers for a non-spicy version, but then again, why would you want to? Remember, ALWAYS wear gloves when working with habaneros!

Steps:
- Make citrus vinaigrette by combining all the ingredients in a jar or a tight-sealing plastic container. Shake to blend.
- Make salsa by combining mango, red onion, chile, bell pepper, and cilantro with 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Very gently, lightly mix in the avocado into the mango mixture. Drizzle with one more tablespoon of vinaigrette, then cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Brush opah with olive oil and add salt and pepper to taste, put on preheated grill, cook 6-8 minutes per side, being careful not to overcook.
- Or, preheat oven to 375. Season fish with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick pan with olive oil, and sear all sides of the opah. When all sides have a nice golden brown hue, place pan in heated oven for a few minutes to finish.
- Place salad greens and toasted pine nuts in bowl and toss with remaining vinaigrette. Place a mound of salad on each serving plate. Place fish on top the salad then top with mango-avocado salsa. Drizzle any additional vinaigrette around the plate.
Tips:
- For the perfect grilled pork rounds, make sure to use a hot grill and cook the pork quickly over high heat. This will help to create a nice char on the outside of the meat while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the pork rounds in a hot skillet. Just be sure to sear the meat well on all sides before reducing the heat to medium-low and cooking until the pork is cooked through.
- To make the avocado-mango salsa, be sure to use ripe avocados and mangoes. This will give the salsa a smooth, creamy texture and a sweet, tangy flavor.
- If you want a spicier salsa, add a diced jalapeño pepper to the mix. Just be sure to remove the seeds and ribs of the pepper before chopping it, so that the salsa is not too hot.
- The couscous is a great way to round out this dish and make it a complete meal. It is light and fluffy, and it pairs perfectly with the grilled pork and avocado-mango salsa.
Conclusion:
This recipe for Hot Chile Grilled Pork Rounds with Avocado-Mango Salsa over Couscous is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The grilled pork is tender and flavorful, the salsa is refreshing and tangy, and the couscous is light and fluffy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
