Cooking Steps

COOK FREEKEH
1

Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F and wash and dry all produce. Garlic Guide for Step 4: 1/4 tsp mild, 1/2 tsp medium and 1 tsp extra! Combine freekeh, broth concentrates and 2 1/2 cups water in a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer, still covered, until freekeh is tender and liquid is absorbed, 25-28 min.

ROAST VEGGIES
2

While freekeh cooks, cut the broccoli-cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. Core, then cut the pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Arrange the the broccoli-cauliflower and peppers on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Toss with 1 tbsp oil and half the shawarma spice blend. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in the top of the oven, until veggies are golden-brown and tender, 14-16 min.

MAKE MEATBALLS
3

While veggies roast, peel, then mince or grate the garlic. Combine the beef, breadcrumbs, half the garlic and remaining sharwarma spice blend in a large bowl. Roll mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs (you should have 16). Arrange meatballs on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake in middle of the oven until golden and cooked through, 10-12 min.**

MAKE LEMONY TOUM
4

While the meatballs bake, zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges. Roughly chop the parsley. Stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, 1 tbsp lemon juice and 1/4 tsp remaining garlic. (NOTE: Reference Garlic Guide.) in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.

FINISH FREEKEH
5

Fluff the freekeh with a fork, then season with salt. Stir in lemon zest and 1 tbsp oil. Once veggies are finished roasting, stir into the freekeh with half the parsley.

FINISH AND SERVE
6

Divide freekeh between bowls. Top with the meatballs and crumble over the feta. Drizzle over the lemony toum.
