Now with leaner ground beef! You asked, we listened: This isn't the HelloFresh you remember. Bigger menu. Upgraded recipes. Increased portion sizes. More variety. The best way to cook dinner just got BETTER.
We take shawarma-seasoned ground beef, “smash” it over flour tortillas, then cook to sizzly perfection in this riff on the iconic Greek-style street sandwich. We load the smashed tacos up with golden spiced potato wedges, a drizzle of cooling, creamy cucumber tzatziki, and a final topping of tangy pickled radish and tomato relish for bright, crunchy contrast.

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim and finely dice radishes. Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces.
• Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, 1 tsp Shawarma Spice Blend (2 tsp for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes. (You'll use the rest of the Shawarma Spice Blend later.)
• While potatoes roast, in a small microwave-safe bowl, combine vinegar, 2 TBSP water, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt (4 TBSP water and 1 tsp sugar for 4 servings). Stir in radishes. Microwave for 30 seconds. Set aside to pickle until ready to use in Step 6.
• In a medium bowl, combine beef*, remaining Shawarma Spice Blend, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Form into 6 2-inch meatballs (12 meatballs for 4). • Arrange tortillas on a clean work surface. Place a meatball in the center of each tortilla. Working one at a time, cover each meatball with a piece of plastic wrap and flatten out with the palm of your hand until meat almost reaches edges of tortilla. TIP: Reuse the plastic wrap as you go.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium heat. Working in batches, carefully add tortillas, meat sides down, to pan (we were able to fit two tortillas at a time in pan; add another drizzle of oil between batches). Cook until beef is browned and almost cooked through, 2-3 minutes. • Flip and cook until tortillas are toasted and beef is cooked through, 30-60 seconds more. TIP: Poke out any air bubbles that form in tortillas with the tip of a sharp knife. • Transfer to a second paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Cover with foil to keep warm.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer radishes to a second small bowl (reserve pickling liquid). Stir in tomato. Add a drizzle of olive oil; taste and season with salt and pepper. • In a third small bowl, combine tzatziki and 2 tsp pickling liquid (4 tsp for 4 servings). • Divide smashed tacos between plates. Top with as many roasted potatoes as you like. Drizzle with tzatziki sauce and top with tomato-radish relish. Serve with any remaining roasted potatoes on the side.
Ground Meat is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
