Cooking Steps

1

• Half-fill a medium saucepan with water. Add brown rice and a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, uncovered, until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain rice and set aside. • Add a dash of olive oil over medium heat, add brown mustard seeds and 1/2 the garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Return rice to the saucepan, stir to combine. Remove from heat. • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs and a good pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside.

• Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person), then flatten to make 2cm-thick rissoles. Transfer to a plate.

• Roughly chop cucumber, tomato and mint leaves. • In a medium bowl combine cucumber, tomato and mixed salad leaves. Drizzle with vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • In a small bowl, combine 1/2 the Greek-style yoghurt (reserve a dollop for the sauce!) and mint.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add rissoles, turning, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate.

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

• Wipe out frying pan and return to a medium-low heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add Mumbai spice blend, tomato paste and remaining garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in the water and a pinch of brown sugar. Remove from heat. Stir through remaining yoghurt and cooked rissoles. Season to taste.
