Ingredients
- 12 Meatless Farm Meatballs
- 1 brown onion, sliced
- 2 sweet peppers
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tsp Smoked paprika
- ½ tsp caraway
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tbsp harissa spice
- 5 ripe vine tomatoes, chopped
- 100g baby spinach
- Handful of mint leaves
- Handful of chopped flat leaf parsley
Tahini dressing…
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- Splash of white wine vinegar
- 3 tbsp water
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil or EVO
Method
- In a pan add a couple of tbsp of oil. Over a low heat fry the cumin and caraway for 30 seconds then add the onions, pepper and season with salt and cook for 5 – 10mins quite slowly and stirring regularly.
- Add the garlic and cook for 1 min, then add the tomatoes, smoked paprika and harissa. Top up the pan with a splash of water and cook for 15 mins.
- To make the tahini dressing, blitz all the ingredients with a stick blender until smooth, you may need to add more water if it feels too thick (tahini can take a lot of water to loosen.)
- Check the seasoning, it should be quite zingy from the vinegar and have a little heat from the garlic. It should also be smooth and creamy. Set aside until later.
- Place the meatballs on a baking tray, roast in the oven at 180C for around 12 mins. (Or place in the shakshuka and bake in the oven or cook on the stove).
- In a separate pan, wilt the baby spinach in a little olive oil When you’re ready to serve add the spinach to the shakshuka and mix well.
- To plate, tip the shakshuka into serving dishes or serve in the pan it was cooked in. Top with loads of torn mint and parsley and drizzle over the tahini sauce
