Happy FriYAY, fam! We made it! Another week officially in the books, and now we are all counting down to a weekend that somehow disappears faster like a 30-minute lunch break. Seriously… who approved these two-day weekends? Anyway, you are here, I’m here, so you already know what’s about to happen. No long speeches—let’s get straight to the good stuff! Today’s star of the show is Garlic Prawn & Pineapple Coconut Couscous. Today, I was in the mood for something that feels like a mini tropical getaway on a plate, so we are pairing juicy garlic prawns with sweet pineapple, fluffy couscous, and a light coconut-lime finish. It’s fresh and exactly the kind of meal that says, “The weekend has officially started.” So, grab your apron, and let’s bring this beauty to life! How to make Garlic Prawn & Pineapple Coconut Couscous Ingredients: 400 g prawns, cleaned and peeled 1 cup couscous 1¼ cups warm vegetable stock 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks ½ red onion, thinly sliced 1 small red pepper, diced 2 garlic cloves, minced ½ cup coconut milk Juice and zest of 1 lime 1 teaspoon mild curry powder 1 teaspoon paprika 2 tablespoons olive oil Salt and black pepper to taste Fresh coriander or parsley for garnish A few toasted cashews for crunch (optional) Method: Place the couscous in a bowl and pour over the warm vegetable stock. Cover and let it sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Season the prawns with paprika, curry powder, salt, and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a pan and sauté the garlic and red onion until fragrant. Add the prawns and cook for 2–3 minutes until pink and tender. Stir in the pineapple chunks and red pepper, cooking for another minute. Pour in the coconut milk and add the lime juice and zest. Let the sauce gently simmer for 2 minutes until slightly creamy. Spoon the fluffy couscous into serving bowls and top with the prawn mixture. Garnish with fresh coriander or parsley and sprinkle with toasted cashews if desired.
