While the corn is cooking.

Cut the tops off the green beans.

Cook the green beans in boiling water for 1 minute, then remove them using tongs, leave the water on.

Add the couscous to the pot and cook for 12 minutes, or until tender. Strain and allow to cool slightly.

Open and strain the tinned white beans. Toss with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Cut the kernels off the cooked corn.

Cut the cucumber into thin half-moons.

Cut the green beans in half.

Cut the cheeks off the green olives.

6

Remove the parsley leaves from the stalk and roughly chop.

Place in a blender along with the avocado flesh, garlic yoghurt and water.

Add a pinch of salt and blend until smooth. Add more water, if needed. Taste and adjust the salt as needed.
