  Another great mid-week meal. So quick to make and really flavoursome. The couscous was delicious - a nice change to potato accompaniments. The pork was ok - couldn't taste the paprika marinade that much which left it a bit boring. I would make this again but add a dash of tobasco sauce to the paprika mixture to give the pork that extra kick.

  Really enjoyed this and very simple to make. Having read the feedback from Natasha, I added a drop of habanero sauce to the paprika mix to give it an extra bite. Will certainly be making this again, the couscous and pepper was very nice.

  We found it a bit dry. Think it needs more sauce of some kind.

  I messed around with quantities and add some hot sauce, the pork came out moist and the cous cous very tasty and will make again.

  Too dry and too sour! If I ever cook it again I will use 1/2 of lemon juice only and I agree that it needs some sauce...

  This sounds lovely, have read other comments and like PETES MENU I will also use hot smoked paprika and roast some cherry toms, then if it is a bit on the dry side the tomamtos will give it some juice. I mau also add some french dwarf beans along the side as we have them growing and need to be eaten. x

  Prefer to have this with fish but the couscous was lovely and fresh. Perfect for the summer.

  was beautiful! was a little dry but the taste of the pork chops made up for it! the couscous was delicious too, a really twangy taste and is perfect for a substitute if you don't like roast dinners! i was really pleased with this recipe.

  Added chilli powder to the cous cous, and some lime. Thought it'd be a bit dry but was really nice.

  "I did not use any lemon juice. instead i used cumin seeds, sweet paprika, salt pepper and olive oil and rubbed it over the pork chops. I added red onion, roasted peppers and spinach leaves to the couscous, once the pork chops were ready i added a small bit of butter to the pan to get the flavours and added the little juice to the couscous. It was delicious."

  I took note of other peoples comments and added some roast tomatoes which we did when we roasted our own peppers (rather than buying a jar of them). Also added some hot sauce to the marinade. I think I might marinade for longer next time and smoked paprika would work well. Will do it againas it was light and quick and tasty.
