Leave the potatoes to crisp up in the oven while you make the harissa-spiked beef chilli. Sprinkle with feta and the chopped fresh herbs and… Voilà.

Ingredients

  • Olive oil for frying
  • 600g potatoes, cut into rough chunks
  • 2 red onions, cut into wedges
  • 400g British lean beef mince
  • 400g tin chopped tomatoes
  • 4 tsp harissa paste
  • 100g feta, crumbled
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh mixed parsley, mint and coriander
  • 250ml greek yoghurt
  • 1 lemon

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 6. Put 2 tbsp oil in a medium shallow roasting tin and put in the oven to heat up. Add the potatoes and onions to the tin, then roast for 30 minutes or until golden, turning occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, heat another 1 tbsp oil in a large saucepan and brown the mince over a medium heat, then add the chopped tomatoes and 150ml cold water. Bring up to the boil, then reduce to a simmer. Stir in the harissa, season, then simmer gently for 20 minutes.
  3. Zest and juice the lemon into the yoghurt and add to a side bowl.
  4. Heat the grill to medium, spoon the beef mixture over the potatoes, sprinkle over the feta, then grill for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the fresh herbs and serve along side the yoghurt.
