Glazed Koftas and Spiced Chips

Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

In a large bowl, combine the garlic, breadcrumbs, salt and water for the breadcrumbs (see pantry for both amounts) with the remaining roasted spice and herb blend and half the harissa paste.

Add the beef mince, season with pepper and mix together with your hands.

Shape the mince mixture into mini sausage shapes, 4 per person. Flatten to make koftas. 

Pop the koftas onto another large baking tray. 

Bake on the top shelf until browned on the outside and cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The koftas are cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

While the koftas bake, clean the (now empty) bowl.

Trim the cucumber (see ingredients for amount), then halve lengthways. Cut lengthways into roughly 1cm wide strips, then cut into 1cm pieces widthways. Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks.

In the clean bowl, combine the red wine vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of sugar (if you have any). Season with salt and pepper.

Add the tomato and cucumber to the dressing and toss to combine.

In a small bowl, combine the mayo and remaining harissa (add less if you'd prefer things milder).

Once the koftas are cooked, drain and discard any excess fat from the tray.

Drizzle the honey (see pantry for amount) over the koftas, then turn to coat them in the glaze.
