Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) olive oil and 1/8 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, stir in couscous and half the Cumin-Turmeric Spice Blend. Remove the pot from heat, then cover and set aside for 5 min for couscous to rehydrate.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over high.
- While pan heats, peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- When hot, add beef, peppers, onions, half the garlic and remaining Cumin-Turmeric Spice Blend to the dry pan. Cook for 3-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until veggies are tender-crisp and no pink remains in beef.**
- Season with salt and pepper, if you like, then set aside.
- Halve cucumber lengthwise. Cut into 1/8-inch half moons.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- To a medium bowl, add cucumber, yogurt and remaining garlic. Season with salt and pepper, if you like. Toss to coat.
- Remove and discard outer layer of lettuce. Halve lettuce, then remove stem. Separate 8 (16) leaves from the head. (NOTE: Use remaining any lettuce for a future creation.)
- Divide between plates.
- Fluff couscous with a fork, then stir in half the cilantro.
- Fill wraps with couscous, beef mixture and raita.
- Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
