4
Blanch garlic in boiling water for 5 minutes, then cool and peel.

10
While the meat is cooking, place the chicken stock into a small sauce pan and place over a high heat and bring to the boil.

Meanwhile place the cous cous into a large mixing bowl. Once the stock has come to the boil, remove from the heat and pour over the cous cous. Stir through well then allow to sit for 5 minutes.

Once all the stock has been absorbed by the cous cous, fluff this up with a fork, which will prevent the cous cous from sticking together and creating lumps. Set aside to cool.
