TOMATO COULIS
Cook cous cous according to directions, usually 1 to 1 ratio water to cous
cous. Bring water to boil with butter and salt stir in cous cous. Remove
from heat, cover and allow to sit for 5 minutes then fluff with fork.
In a bowl combine finished cous cous with red pepper dice, dust spice mix,
2 teaspoons Chili Oil and salt and pepper to taste.
Press cous cous into ramekins with spoon in order to create a timbale.
Slice bok choy in half and rinse if necessary. Brush with oil and add salt

TOMATO COULIS:
In a blender combine tomatoes, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend
