Cooking Steps

Prep
1

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim and halve zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick half-moons. Trim, peel, and cut carrot on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges; mince a few wedges until you have 2 TBSP (4 TBSP for 4 servings). Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces.

Roast Vegetables
2

• Toss zucchini, carrot, and onion wedges on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast on top rack, tossing halfway through, until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Form Meatballs
3

• While veggies roast, in a medium bowl, combine pork, minced onion, half the Tunisian Spice Blend (you’ll use the rest later), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Form pork mixture into six 1½-inch meatballs (twelve meatballs for 4 servings).

Swap in beef or organic beef for pork.

Cook Patties
4

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add meatballs and press down with a spatula to form patties; cook until cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. • Transfer patties to a plate; remove pan from heat and let cool slightly, about 1 minute.

Make Pan Sauce
5

• Heat same pan over medium heat. Add tomato and remaining Tunisian Spice Blend; cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato is saucy, 3-4 minutes. • In a small bowl, whisk together stock concentrate, half the flour (all for 4 servings), and 1⁄3 cup water (2⁄3 cup for 4). Slowly stir flour mixture into pan and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted and combined.

Serve
6

• Divide vegetable jumble and pork patties between plates in separate sections. Top patties with pan sauce and serve.

Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: The Tunisian spice blend received mixed reviews; some found it unique, while others thought it clashed with the meat and tomato.
  • Ease of prep: Many found this dish easy to prepare, with simple steps and excellent flavors.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding more fresh tomatoes or a can of diced tomatoes with chilies for extra sauce 🍅.
  • Portions: Some felt the beef portions were too small; try adding lemon quinoa to bulk up the meal.
  • Vegetables: The roasted veggie mix was tasty, though a few found zucchini gets mushy; Brussels sprouts could be a firmer alternative.
