Ingredients

Fresh Ingredients

• 500g Beef Mince

• 1 Cucumber, cut into batons

• 2 Limes, cut into wedges

• 4 Little Gem Lettuce, torn

• 300g Carrots, ribboned

Other Ingredients

• 2 Garlic Cloves, minced

• 4 Tablespoons Soy Sauce

• 2 Shallots, sliced

• 1 Tablespoon Veg Oil

• 1 Teaspoon Sugar

• 1 Teaspoon Dried Chilli Flakes (optional)

• 1 Bunch Coriander, chopped (optional)

Method

1. Combine the beef, half the soy sauce, chilli, chopped garlic and half the coriander to a bowl and mix well. Then with your hands, make around 20 meatballs, pop them in the fridge to firm up for 5 mins.

2. Heat a large non-stick pan with the veg oil, when hot add the meatballs and cook evenly until brown all over. Then cover and continue to cook for around 5 mins more. Once done, transfer to a plate and reserve the meat juices in the pan for the next step.

3. Add the shallots to the pan with the meat juice, cook for around 1 min, reduce the heat then add the remaining soy and sugar, mix well. Turn the heat off then add the juice from 1 lime.

4. Next add the lettuce, cucumber and carrot to a large bowl, drizzle over the shallot and lime dressing and toss well.

5. Serve the salad on plates with the meatballs, remaining lime wedges and coriander sprinkled on top!
