Cooking Steps

1

• Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. Thinly slice brown onion (see ingredients). Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Drain the sweetcorn. • SPICY! The spice blend is mild, but use less if you're sensitive to heat. In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, Tex-Mex spice blend, the egg, half the garlic and a pinch of salt. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of the beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.

2

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Cook carrot and corn until tender and lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are “popping” out.

3

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook remaining garlic, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add broccoli and cauliflower rice and stock concentrate and cook until softened, 2-4 minutes. • Transfer to the bowl with carrot and corn. Season to taste. Cover to keep warm.

4

• Wipe out frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil. • Cook meatballs, turning, until browned, 5-7 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, then add onion, stirring regularly, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add the balsamic vinegar, the brown sugar and a splash of water. Mix well. TIP: Add a splash more water to loosen the onion mixture, if needed.

5

• Meanwhile, to the bowl with rice, add spinach and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. • Toss to combine. Season to taste.

6

• Divide veggie-cauli rice between bowls. • Top with Tex-Mex beef meatballs and caramelised onion. • Serve with a dollop of Greek-style yoghurt. Enjoy!
