Beef, Feta And Silverbeet Gozleme

Beef, Feta And Silverbeet Gozleme

Ingredients

4 large wrap breads
4 tbs Red Island Extra Virgin Olive Oil
250g Coles GRAZE beef mince
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tsp Coles ground cumin
½ tsp Coles ground cinnamon
1 tbs tomato paste
2 tsp Coles Honey
Coles Sea Salt Flakes and Coles Cracked Black Pepper, to season
2 cups silverbeet leaves, finely chopped
2 green spring onions, finely chopped
½ cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
150g Coles Danish Feta Cheese, crumbled
1 lemon to serve
½ cup Greek yoghurt, to serve

Method

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil on a flat BBQ plate, or non-stick frying pan. Cook the beef, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon for 4-5 minutes, or until browned. Add the garlic, cumin, cinnamon and season with sea salt and pepper. Continue to cook for 2-3 minutes before adding the tomato paste and honey.

Add the mince mixture into a large bowl with the silverbeet and mix until the silver beet has slightly wilted. Allow to cool slightly then sprinkle in the green onions, parsley and feta cheese.

Place the wrap breads onto a clean work surface and fill one side of them with the beef mince. Fold the wraps over in half to cover the filling and drizzle the outside with the remaining oil. Cook the gozleme on a flat BBQ plate for 2-3 minutes each side, or until crisp on the outside. Slice into wedges and serve with the Greek yoghurt and lemon wedges.

Marinade

3 tbs fish sauce
1 ½ tbs caster sugar
2 sticks of lemongrass, white
part finely chopped
1 long thai chilli, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 x 2cm piece of ginger, grated
Zest of 2 limes

Peanut sauce - this makes a lot as you’ll be addicted to this stuff
2tbs Red Island Extra Virgin Olive Oil
200g dice brown onion, roughly chopped
100g garlic, peeled and roughly chopped
100g fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped
100g chilli, deseeded and roughly chopped
20g ground turmeric
2 kaffir lime leaves, shredded
1 stick of lemongrass, white part finely chopped
Stems and roots from 1 bunch of coriander
400g coconut milk
100ml water
100g oyster sauce
50ml lime juice
500g peeled and unsalted peanuts, roasted

Garnish

Coriander leaves
Chopped fresh chilli
Lime

Method

Pre heat your oven to 160 degrees

For the peanut sauce, place the brown onion, garlic, ginger, chilli, kaffir lime leaf, lemongrass and coriander into a blender. Blend on high with a touch of water until it resembles a paste.

Place a medium sized pot over a medium heat and add the rice bran oil and paste to the pan. Cook out eh paste for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally so that it doesn’t burn.

While the paste is cooking out, dry roast your peanuts in the oven at 160 degree for 7 minutes. Transfer them to the blender and pulse until the broken up but not a powder.

Next, add the turmeric to the paste and cook out for another 2 minutes. Then, add the peanuts to the pan and stir all the ingredients together. Then add the coconut milk and the water, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Season with the oyster sauce and lime juice. I like my sauce fairly chunky so if you want it smoother, simply blend the final product.

Place all of the ingredients for the marinade into a mixing bowl and stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Add the chicken to the bowl and mix well. Let the chicken marinate for half and hour.

Skewer the chicken onto the skewers and cook over a bbq for around 7-10 minutes or until the chicken is just cooked.

Transfer the chicken skewers to your serving plate and generously spoon over the peanut sauce and garnish with the coriander, fresh chilli and lime.
