Creamy Harissa Beef & Wild Rice
with charred long-steam broccoli
Spicy, smoky, and straight from Northern Africa, harissa paste adds a peppery kicky to the coconut cream sauce, which coats the browned beef meatballs. Add a generous serving of brown basmati rice, zesty charred broccoli, and a coconut flake & almond mix for garnish, and you’ve got a flavour feast.

RICE
Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 300ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 25-30 minutes. Drain (if necessary) and cover.
TOAST
Place the nut mix in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
MEATBALLS
In a bowl, combine the mince, the spring onion greens (to taste), the NOMU rub, ½ the harissa paste, and seasoning. Wet your hands slightly and shape the mince mixture into 4-5 meatballs.
