Homestyle Beef Rissoles & Cheesy Fries

While the fries are baking, roughly chop the cucumber. Thinly slice the apple. Finely chop the garlic.

In a medium bowl, combine the beef mince, fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients), Nan's special seasoning, garlic, egg, and a pinch of salt. Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of the beef mixture into meatballs, then flatten into 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 beef rissoles, in batches, turning, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes.

In a second medium bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Add the mixed salad leaves, apple and cucumber. Toss to coat.
