- New Zealand beef – nature’s power pack of essential nutrients, protein, iron, zinc and vitamin B12 to name a few.
- We've used tinned cherry tomatoes as they're not quite in season yet. A handy staple to have in the pantry. If this dish becomes a family favourite, swap them out for the fresh variety in the summer months.

Beef
In a large bowl combine the beef mince, onion, garlic, coriander, cumin, chilli, chopped parsley and the breadcrumbs. Season with a little salt. (It is a good idea to fry off a small piece of the beef mince mixture and taste for seasoning).Roll the beef mince mixture into about 24 small balls. Place the seasoned flour on a large flat plate. Roll beef mince balls in the seasoned flour.
Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan and brown the meatballs, in batches, transferring to a plate as you go.
Wipe out the frying pan with kitchen paper and return the meatballs. Pour in the stock and cherry tomatoes and cover with a lid. Place over low heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
To serve
Serve hot meatballs with cooked spaghetti and wilted spinach.
