Cooking Steps

1
1

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the carrot, zucchini and beetroot into fries. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle over the black sesame seeds and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

TIP: Beetroot stays firm when cooked. It's done when you can pierce it with a fork.

While the fries are baking, zest the lemon to get a generous pinch, then cut into wedges. Halve the cherry tomatoes.

In a medium bowl, combine the beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, egg, chermoula spice blend, lemon zest and a good pinch of salt. Using damp hands, form heaped spoonfuls of the mixture into meatballs, then flatten to make 2cm-thick rissoles (3-4 per person). Transfer to a plate.

When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the rissoles, in batches, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side.

TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!
