Steps:
- Combine cumin and ginger. Crush garlic, and add to spices. Wash and dry pork, and cut into 3/4-inch cubes. Roll the pork in the spice mixture, and set aside.
- Following the package directions, bring the beef stock to a boil. Add the couscous, cover and remove from heat. Allow to sit for 5 minutes, until the couscous has absorbed the liquid.
- Heat nonstick skillet until it is very hot; reduce heat to medium high, and add oil. Saute pork cubes until they are brown on all sides and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, wash, trim and coarsely chop tomatoes. Pit and chop olives. Wash, trim and cut the scallions into thin rounds. Wash and chop cilantro and mint. Add tomatoes, olives, scallions and lemon juice to couscous. When pork cubes are cooked, stir into mixture. Stir in the cilantro and mint. Season with salt and pepper.
