  1. ROAST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. SOME PREP

    In a small bowl, combine the grated cheese, the chopped parsley, and 30g of butter. In a bowl, combine the mince, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mince from sticking to them. Shape the mince mixture into 3-4 meatballs. Gently flatten the meatballs into thin patties and add 1-2 tsp of the herby butter in the centre. Gently press the mince around the filling, fully enclosing it. Gently roll it in your hands to create a smooth meatball, being careful to not push the filling out!

  3. TOAST

    Place the chopped almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. BROCCOLI

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the rinsed broccoli until charred but still crunchy, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.

  5. GOLDEN MEATBALLS

    Whisk 1 egg in a bowl with a splash of water. Prepare a second shallow dish with the breadcrumbs. Coat the meatballs in the whisked egg and then in the crumb. Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the meatballs until golden and cooked through, 3-4 minutes (turning as they colour). Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

  6. SALAD

    In a salad bowl, combine the vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil and seasoning. Add the rinsed green leaves, the drained sun-dried tomatoes, and the roasted carrots. Toss to coat.

  7. IT’S THAT TIME

    Plate up the loaded warm salad, scatter over the drained feta, and side with the golden meatballs and the charred broccoli. Sprinkle the toasted nuts over the salad. Well done, Chef!
