Beaut Beef and Beetroot Rissoles

These rissoles are simple to prepare and cook, and are a one-stop meal with vegetables already added. You could put more vegies on the side or prepare a small salad, if you wish.

Serves: 4

Ingredients

600g lean beef, chopped
1 egg
150g beetroot, skin scrubbed, coarsely grated

Method
To make the mustard tahini, mix together all the ingredients with 2–3 tablespoons warm water in a small bowl (the mixture will be quite thick). Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Set aside until required. You may want to add a little extra warm water before serving if it has thickened further on standing.

To make the rissoles, place all the ingredients in a food processor and process until minced. Using slightly damp hands, divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and roll into rissoles.

Heat a barbecue to medium. Cook the rissoles for 4–5 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through.
