Cooking Steps

PDF

1

Drain and rinse chickpeas.
Discard any liquid from beef strip packaging. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat.
When oil is hot, cook beef strips and chickpeas in batches, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Add Middle Eastern seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.

TIP: Add a splash of water if the chickpeas look dry.

2

Meanwhile, Roughly chop coriander, mint and roasted almonds.
In a large bowl, combine the honey and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season and add shredded cabbage mix, coriander, mint, julienned carrot, currants and almonds and toss to coat.

3

Microwave pita bread on a microwave-safe plate until warmed through, 1 minute.

4

Halve pita bread and fill with garlic dip, Middle Eastern beef and chickpeas and some herby slaw. Drizzle over dill & parsley mayonnaise.
Serve with any remaining slaw. Enjoy!
