  • 80g peas
  • 80g asparagus
  • 20g lemon juice
  • 5g olive oil
  • 6g garlic
  • fresh parsley, thyme & black pepper

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the peas and asparagus, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cube the sweet potato and roast at 200°C for 25 minutes until soft and caramelised.

  3. 3

    Brown the lean beef mince in a hot pan for 6-8 minutes, breaking it up, then drain any excess fat.

  4. 4

    Toss the protein in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and herbs before cooking, and squeeze over more lemon to finish.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the peas and asparagus for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: sweet potato first, then the veg and lean beef, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the lemon wedge.
