INSTRUCTIONS
To make salad: Measure water into a 2-cup glass measure. Microwave on high 3 minutes, or until boiling. Stir in couscous, cover with plastic wrap and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with fork. Peel and segment oranges over a large stainless steel bowl to catch excess juice - reserve segments for garnish. After segmenting oranges, squeeze juice from core and membranes into bowl. Add mango, basil, chives, cumin, pine nuts and couscous - toss to combine. Pack mixture into 6 individual : 1/2 cup molds. Arrange arugula wagon-wheel fashion on six large plates. Unmold couscous in center of plate. Garnish with reserved orange sections To make Vinaigrette: Peel orange, grapefruit, lime and lemon. Cut each into segments over a large stainless steel bowl to catch excess juices. Carefully dice segments, cutting - not crushing them. Add oil, vinegar, soy sauce and tabasco to fruit juices in bowl - whisk to blend. Add peppercorns, ginger, cilantro, diced fruit and stir to combine. Makes about 1 1/4 cups. Drizzle over couscous.
