Once the fruit is nicely marked by the grill, remove it with tongs and set aside on a plate. 4. MIX the vinegar and olive oil in a small bowl; add salt and pepper to taste. 5. MIX the the cooked couscous with the finely chopped chives, strips of salami and shaved Pecorino. Pour the dressing over the couscous and mix together with a fork.
