Chermoula Beef Meatballs
with Carrot Couscous, Tomato Salsa & Almonds
Bursting with colour, aroma and zest, this dish is inspired by the lively night markets of Marrakech. The chermoula-spiced meatballs work a treat with the fluffy, earthy couscous, while the refreshing salsa works to cut through the richness. Serve with a dollop of yoghurt for tang and creaminess, and a sprinkle of flaked almonds for crunch.

Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. Grate carrot (see ingredients). Roughly chop tomato and parsley. Set aside. • In a large saucepan, melt the butter with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook carrot until softened, 2-3 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and chicken-style stock powder, then bring to the boil. • Add couscous, stirring to combine. Cover with a lid, then remove from heat. Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes.
• While the couscous is cooking, combine beef mince, chermoula spice blend, the egg, fine breadcrumbs, the salt and a pinch of pepper in a large bowl. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate. • 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.
TIP: Cook the meatballs in batches if your pan is getting crowded.
• Fluff up couscous with a fork, then stir through baby spinach leaves. Set aside. • In a medium bowl, combine tomato, parsley, the white wine vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil. Season, then toss to coat.
• Divide carrot couscous between plates. • Top with chermoula beef meatballs and tomato salsa. • Dollop over Greek-style yoghurt. Sprinkle with flaked almonds to serve. Enjoy!
