Cooking Steps

Roast the sweet potatoes
1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C.
• Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks.
• Place sweet potato and brown mustard seeds on 
a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with 
salt and toss to coat.
• Roast until just tender, 20-25 minutes.

Roast the sweet potatoes
2

• Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, add the 
butter and microwave in 10 second bursts,  
until melted.
• When the potatoes are done, pour the melted 
butter over sweet potatoes, tossing to coat. 

Get prepped
3

• When potatoes have 10 minutes remaining, thinly slice cucumber into rounds.

• In a large bowl, combine beef strips, tandoori paste and a pinch of salt. 

Little cooks: Take charge by tossing the beef in the paste!

Cook the beef
4

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. • Remove beef from heat and add honey, turning to coat. Season to taste and transfer to a plate. 

TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.

Toss the salad
5

• Just before serving, in a second large bowl, combine 
gourmet leaf mix, cucumber and a drizzle of the 
white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. 


Little cooks: Take the lead by tossing the salad! 

Finish & serve
6

• Divide tandoori beef, mustard seed sweet potatoes and cucumber salad between plates.
• Sprinkle flaked almonds over salad. 
• Serve with garlic sauce. Enjoy!
