Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Peel potato and carrot, then cut into large chunks. • Thinly slice tomato into wedges. TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato and carrot unpeeled!

Make the veggie smash
2

• Cook potato and carrot in the boiling water until easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes. Drain. • Return veggies to pan, then season generously with salt. Smash until smooth.

Make the meatballs
3

• Meanwhile, combine beef mince, egg, fine breadcrumbs, Aussie spice blend and a pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of the beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.

Cook the meatballs
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat. Stir in sweet & savoury glaze and a splash of water, tossing to coat. TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before cooking the glaze. TIP: Reduce heat to medium, if meatballs are becoming too charred.

Toss the salad
5

• While the meatballs are cooking, combine a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. • Add spinach & rocket mix and tomato, tossing to coat.

Finish & serve
6

• Divide beef meatballs, potato-carrot smash and tomato salad between plates. • Sprinkle pepitas over salad to serve. Enjoy!
