Honey-Glazed Mexican Beef Meatballs

Honey-Glazed Mexican Beef Meatballs

with Wholemeal Carrot & Corn Couscous

Give meatballs a Mexican twist by lacing them with our mild Tex-Mex spice blend, which will also create a lovely char in the pan. Add a bit of honey once they're done for a gorgeous glaze that imparts a touch of sweetness. Serve over a fluffy and wholesome couscous studded with sweet bursts of corn, and complete the dish with a crisp and tangy cucumber salad, plus a dollop of creamy yoghurt to tie everything together.

Cooking Steps

1
1

• SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you're sensitive to heat! In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, Tex-Mex spice blend, fine breadcrumbs, the egg and a pinch of salt. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of the mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.

2

• Finely chop garlic. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil and 1/2 the garlic over medium-high heat. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Transfer to a small heatproof bowl. Add Greek-style yoghurt. Stir to combine. Season to taste.

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, then add the honey and a splash of water, tossing to coat.

TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before adding the honey.

• Meanwhile, grate carrot. Drain sweetcorn. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook carrot and corn until softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and a good pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add wholemeal couscous and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from heat. Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes.

• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. • In a medium bowl, combine a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. • Season, then add cucumber. Toss to coat.
