"I found this in an issue of Clean Eating and have only slightly adapted it to my liking. I am not a fan of couscous, so I used Jasmine Rice instead. This recipe is so easy, light, quick and most importantly, delicious!"

This was very popular with my family. There was no mention of when to add the garlic or papaya so we just added it with the pork. That turned out pretty well. Some discovered that this meshes pretty well with sriacha chili sauce so you might want to offer that as an add-in if desired.
