Bereiding

  1. Soak the breadcrumbs and make the meatball mixture

    • In a mixing bowl, combine part of the yoghurt with the breadcrumbs and a dash of water.
    • Leave to sit for 5 minutes, then add the pork mince, garlic, dried dill, dried oregano, chilli flakes and lemon zest.
    • Crumble in half of the feta, season with pepper and a little salt, then roll into 16-20 even sized balls.
    Stap 1
  2. Cook the meatballs

    • Bring a frying pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil and cook the meatballs until golden brown and cooked through, gently turning so all sides caramelise.
    • Lower the heat, drizzle over the honey and swirl in the pan to coat.
    Stap 2
  3. Cook the orzo

    • Cook the orzo as per pack instructions.
    • Strain and rinse under cold water to cool.
    Stap 3
  4. Make the tzatziki

    • Grate part of the cucumber and press in a paper towel to remove excess water.
    • Combine in a bowl with the remaining yoghurt, garlic, dill, lemon juice and seasoning to taste.
    Stap 4
  5. Assemble the bowls

    • Toss the orzo, rocket and half of the herbs with a drizzle of oil, then divide into four bowls.
    • Top with the meatballs, thinly slice the remaining cucumber and divide amongst the bowls with the tomatoes and onion.
    • Spoon the tzatziki into the bowls, sprinkle with the remaining herbs and crumble the leftover feta over top.
