    1 Spray a non-stick pan with oil. Place venison in pan and sear each side for 2-3 minutes, then leave to cook for 10-15 minutes or until cooked to your liking. Remove from heat and wrap in foil to keep warm.

    2 Place couscous in bowl with boiling water. Cover and leave for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. Set aside.

    3 Mix lettuce, mint and feta together in a large salad bowl. Drizzle with balsamic and oil.

    4 Place couscous on plate, then salad on top. Scatter with beetroot and pieces of thinly sliced venison. Serve sprinkled with chopped parsley, if desired.
