Steps

  1. oven to 220°C. Line a lipped oven tray with baking paper.

  3. Lay kumara, in a single layer, on prepared tray, pour over any remaining orange mix and roast for 20-25 minutes, until tender and caramelised. Turn once during cook time.
  4. While kumara roasts, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook onion for about 2 minutes, until softened. Add carrot and salt and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until carrot is tender.
  5. Add pulled beef and stock to pan, reduce heat to medium, bring to a simmer and cook for about 6 minutes, until sauce has thickened. Add peas for the final 1 minute of cook time and cook until peas are bright green and tender and beef is warmed through.
  6. While beef simmers, whisk together mustard, olive oil and vinegar in a large bowl. Cut cucumber in half lengthways and thinly slice. Thinly slice red onion. Add all to bowl with dressing, along with lettuce, toss to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  7. divide roast kumara between bowls and top with BBQ pulled beef. Dollop with sour cream and garnish with coriander. Serve green salad on the side.
