From your kitchen:

BABY MARROW
Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the baby marrow pieces until charred, 2-3 minutes (shifting as they colour). Remove from the pan.
MOROCCAN VEG MEDLEY
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the sliced onion until lightly soft and golden, 8-10 minutes. In the final 1-2 minutes, mix in the baby marrow pieces and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan, season, and cover.
MMMEATBALLS
Return the pan, wiped down, to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the meatballs until browned, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan. (Alternatively: Air fry the meatballs at 200°C until crispy, 5-8 minutes, shifting halfway).
WHIPPED FETA
In a small bowl, combine the yoghurt and the drained feta. Mash with a fork until combined. Add water in 5ml increments if the mixture is not coming together. Alternatively, place in a blender and pulse until smooth.
TOASTY PITA
Place a clean pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the pita until heated through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, place it on a plate and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds. Cut into quarters.
TAKE A BITE
Smear the whipped feta, top with the meatballs, side with the charred veggies, and the pita triangles. Garnish with the picked mint leaves. Cheers, Chef!
