Remove and place in a shallow baking tray. Spread over a little Dijon mustard, drizzle with a little olive oil and grind over black pepper. Place in the hot oven and cook for 18 minutes for medium rare beef. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with salt, cover loosely with foil or baking paper and a tea towel and leave to rest.
- Preserved lemon in a jar can be purchased at your local supermarket or foodstore. Rinse and finely slice or chop the rind before use. Discard fleshy bits.

Green herb dressing
Place the herbs, spring onion, garlic, lemon zest, cumin and chilli in the bowl of a food processor. Process to roughly chop the herbs. While the processor is on, drizzle in the olive oil followed by the vinegar. Season with salt and place dressing in a small screw top jar. Keep in the fridge.
Bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to the boil. Add the Israeli couscous and cook for 7-8 minutes until tender. Drain and refresh under cold water to arrest cooking. Drain well, then place in a large bowl and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil to prevent sticking and set aside.Salad
Brush eggplant slices with some of the remaining olive oil and place on the grill and cook until very tender. Cut into big chunks and add to the Israeli couscous.
Place the carrots in a bowl with the remaining olive oil and season. Place the carrots on the grill, turning often, until tender or cooked to your liking. Remove and place in with the Israeli couscous.
Add the preserved lemon, greens and mint. Toss gently to combine, adding a little extra olive oil if needed and a good few squeezes of lemon juice. Place on a large shallow serving plate.
