I forgot the orange. It was a bit dry and lacking. It needs something, but I don't know what. Needs garlic for sure. Some sort of sauce would help. I used 750g turkey mince and 290g cous cous. I added chick peas obvs. ADD: I ate again with the orange, but I didn't really enjoy it. Don't think I will make this again.
