We've turned fattoush (Mediterranean bread salad) into a meal by topping it off with juicy beef koftas, flavoured with a sweet and earthy ras el hanout spice mix. We've also swapped out some of the bread for extra veggies, which work wonderfully with the creamy garlic sauce.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• Roughly chop tomato and cucumber. Roughly chop roasted almonds. Roughly chop mini flour tortillas (see ingredients).
• Place tortilla pieces on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season generously with salt and pepper and turn to coat.
• Bake tortilla chips until golden, 5-6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

TIP: Keep an eye on the tortilla chips. You want them crisp, but not burnt!

2

• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, using damp hands, combine beef mince, middle Eastern seasoning, fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients), a pinch of salt and the egg.
• Using damp hands, roll the mixture into koftas about 8cm long (three per person). Transfer to a plate.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook beef koftas, turning regularly, until browned, 10-12 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat. Add the honey, gently turning koftas to coat.

3

• In a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, tomato, cucumber, tortilla chips and golden goddess dressing. Season to taste.

4

• Divide fattoush-style salad between bowls. Top with Moroccan-spiced beef koftas, spooning over any remaining glaze from the pan.
• Drizzle with garlic sauce. Tear over mint and top with almonds to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on July 2026

Flavour: The koftas deliver bold, spiced flavour, though some found the overall dish quite sharp and sour without enough to balance it out.
Ease of prep: The tortilla chips were a highlight, and the recipe came together without much fuss.
Suggestions: If the dressing feels too tangy, try using a little less to balance the stronger flavours in the salad.
