Ingredients

Beef Rissoles

  • ½ carrot
  • ½ courgette
  • 1 pack beef mince
  • 1 pottle onion and garlic paste
  • ½ bag Parmesan cheese
  • 1 Tbsp tomato sauce
  • 2 tsp rissole spice mix
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • ½ packet panko breadcrumbs

Couscous

  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 1 pack wholemeal couscous
  • ½ courgette
  • ½ carrot
  • 1 spring onion
  • ½ bag baby spinach
  • ¾-1 sachet honey mustard vinaigrette

To Serve

  • ¼ cup tomato relish or sauce (optional)

Steps

  1. Grate first measures of carrot and courgette, add to a medium bowl with remaining rissole ingredients and mix well to combine. Use a 1/3 cup measure to scoop out mix and roll into balls. Flatten slightly into 2cm thick rissoles.
  2. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium heat and cook rissoles for 4-5 minutes each side, until cooked through.
  3. While rissoles cook, bring stock to the boil in a small pot on high heat. Once boiling, turn off heat, add couscous and stir. Cover and leave for 5 minutes, then fluff up grains with a fork.
  4. While couscous steams, grate remaining courgette and carrot, thinly slice spring onion and spinach. Add to a medium bowl with cooked couscous and honey mustard vinaigrette and toss to combine. Season to taste.
  5. To serve, divide couscous between plates and top with rissoles. Serve a dollop of tomato relish/sauce on the side (if using).
