Cooking Steps
• Peel and cut kumara into wedges. • Set your air fryer to 200°C. Place kumara into the air fryer basket, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning, season with salt and toss to coat. Cook for 15 minutes. Shake the basket, then cook until golden, a further 10-15 minutes. Divide between serving plates.
TIP: No air fryer? Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Place kumara on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. • In a medium bowl, combine beef mince, fine breadcrumbs, garlic, the egg, Aussie spice blend and a pinch of salt. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of beef mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person).
Little cooks: Join the fun by helping combine the ingredients and shaping the mixture into meatballs!
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove the pan from heat, then add cherry sauce and BBQ sauce and cook, turning meatballs to coat, 1 minute.
• While the meatballs are cooking, roughly chop cucumber. Thinly slice apple.
• In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, apple and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide BBQ and cherry-glazed beef meatballs, kumara wedges and cucumber salad between plates. • Spoon any remaining glaze from the pan over meatballs. Serve with mayonnaise. Enjoy!
