Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Bring a large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
- Pull out 2 large frying pans, a large bowl, a medium bowl, a small bowl, a grater & a sieve
Boil the rice
- Add the rice and cumin seeds to the saucepan and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked, then drain
Prep time
- Meanwhile, finely slice the onion. Pick the mint leaves from the stalks, then finely chop. Grate half the cucumber. Halve the pomegranate and remove the seeds
- Squeeze out the excess water from the cucumber, then mix in the small bowl with the yoghurt and mint. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside
Fry the burgers
- Mix the lamb and half the ras el hanout in the medium bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, around 2cm thick
- Heat a large frying pan with 1/2 tbsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the burgers and cook for 7 mins, then flip and cook for another 6 mins, until cooked through
Soften the onion & prep the salad
- Heat the other large frying pan on medium heat with 1 tbsp oil. Once hot, add the onion and cook for 8-9 mins, until golden and softened. Season with salt and pepper
- Dice the remaining cucumber into 1cm cubes. Quarter the tomatoes
- Add both to the large bowl with the red wine vinegar, 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Finish & plate up
- Add the remaining ras el hanout to the onion and cook for 30 secs, then add the cooked rice. Season with salt and stir to combine
- Add the salad leaves to the salad bowl and toss to combine
- Check your meat is cooked through; it should be golden brown, steaming hot, the juices should run clear when cut and there should be no pink / rare meat inside
- Serve the lamb burgers, salad and rice on plates. Scatter over the pomegranate seeds and drizzle over the pomegranate molasses. Finish with a dollop of cucumber yoghurt
