1 packet
peeled pumpkin pieces
1 sachet
mixed sesame seeds
(Contains: Sesame)
1 bag
green beans
3 clove
garlic
1 packet
beef mince
½ packet
panko breadcrumbs
(Contains: Gluten(Wheat))
1 packet
sriracha
(May be present: Soy)
1 bag
baby broccoli
1 sachet
Thai Seven Spice Blend
(Contains: Milk)
olive oil
1
egg
(Contains: Eggs)
¼ tsp
salt
1 tsp
sesame oil
(Contains: Sesame)

Preheat the oven to 240°/220°C fan-forced. Place the peeled & chopped pumpkin and mixed sesame seeds on a lined oven tray. Season with salt, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

While the pumpkin is roasting, trim the green beans. Trim the baby broccoli and halve lengthways. Finely chop the garlic.

In a medium bowl, combine the beef mince, panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), Thai seven spice blend, the egg, salt and 1/2 the garlic. Using damp hands, form heaped spoonfuls of the beef mixture into meatballs, then flatten to make 2cm-thick rissoles. Transfer to a plate. You should get 3-4 rissoles per person.

Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the green beans and baby broccoli, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer the veggies to a bowl, then add the sesame oil and toss to coat.

Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the rissoles in batches until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side.

Divide the Asian beef rissoles, sesame roasted pumpkin and garlicky greens between bowls. Drizzle the sriracha over the rissoles to serve.
