Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1.

Boil a little water in a kettle

Peel and finely slice half your red onion[s]

Peel and finely dice the remaining onion

Top, tail, peel and grate your carrot[s]

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Step 1
2.

Add your cider vinegar, 2 tsp [3 tsp] [4 tsp] sugar, 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] boiled water and a pinch of salt to a large bowl and stir it all together

Add the grated carrot to the bowl and set aside to pickle – this is your quick-pickled carrot

Step 2
3.

Add the diced onion to a separate bowl with half the chopped garlic (you'll use the rest later!), your beef stock mix, ground cumin and ground turmeric

Add your lean beef mince, 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] cold water and a very generous pinch of salt and pepper to the bowl

Give everything a good mix up until thoroughly combined (clean hands is the best way!) – this is your kofte mix

Step 3
4.

Divide the kofte mix into 6 balls per person, then shape into rough oval shapes – these are your lean beef kofte

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick, with a matching lid) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat

Once hot, add the lean beef kofte and cook for 2 min on each side or until lightly browned

Step 4
5.

Once browned, turn down to medium-high heat, then add the sliced onion with a splash of boiled water to the pan and cook, covered, for an initial 6 min or until the kofte are golden brown and cooked through (no pink meat!)

Step 5
6.

While the kofte are cooking, add your natural yoghurt to a small bowl with your ground sumac, remaining chopped garlic (not a big garlic fan? Try using less!), a drizzle of olive oil, 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] cold water and a pinch of salt

Stir it all together – this is your sumac yoghurt

Wash your lettuce, then pat dry with kitchen paper and shred finely

Slice your tomato[es] finely into rounds, then cut in half

Step 6
7.

Add your tortillas to a plate and pop in the microwave for 20 secs on high or until warmed through

Drain the quick-pickled carrot and return it to the bowl with the shredded lettuce and toss – this is your quick-pickled salad

Step 7
8.

Spread each warmed tortilla wrap with some of the sumac yoghurt, then add the quick-pickled salad, halved tomato rounds and 2 lean beef kofte

Top with the cooked onion, any remaining sumac yoghurt and your harissa paste (can't handle the heat? Go easy!)

Enjoy!
