GREEK MEATBALLS
In a bowl, combine the mince, garlic, ½ the parsley and ½ of the Greek seasoning. Wet your hands slightly and shape the mince mixture into 4-5 meatballs per portion. Gently press them down to flatten them slightly. Set aside.
GREEK SALAD
In another bowl, combine the Cucumber, olives, remaining parsley, baby tomatoes, the white balsamic vinegar and some olive oil. Season and set aside.
GREEK-SPICED CAULIFLOWER
Rinse the cauliflower and grate it (or alternatively, add it to a food processor and pulse it into small pieces). Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the cauliflower until golden and soft, 6-8 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add the remaining Greek seasoning. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
GORGEOUS GREEK AROMAS
Place another pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan.
A GREEK FEAST!
Plate up the cauli rice, topped with the Chicken keftedes, drizzling over any pan juices. Dollop over the Tzatziki and side with the chopped salad.
