- Put the turkey mince in a bowl and season well with salt and black pepper. Add the curry powder and grated onion and mix well. Divide the mixture into 16 and roll into balls.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan with a lid. Add the meatballs and cook covered over medium heat, shaking the pan regularly for 10-12 mins or until browned all over and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, put the couscous into a large bowl along with the raisins. Pour over the hot vegetable stock and cover the bowl; stand for 10 mins to soak.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir through the grated carrot, chopped apple and pepper.
- Set aside about 400g of the couscous salad for lunches tomorrow. Divide the rest of the couscous between 4 plates and top each with 4 meatballs, adding a small handful of salad leaves to each plate and a dollop of yogurt, if you like.
