While the sweet potato roasts, pick out and get rid of any tough stalks from the kale. Add a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt, then massage with your hands for 2-3 minutes until softened and dark green. Really squeeze and break it down, don't skip this step.

Boil the giant couscous according to the packet instructions until tender. Drain and set aside.
