Serves 4.

2 Tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 Tbsp Alexandra’s Baharat Spice Mix
500g beef mince
¼ cup pine nuts
1 egg
2 Tbsp coriander, finely chopped
2½ cups passata (pasta sauce)

Heat oil in a frying pan and sauté onion, garlic and Baharat Spice Mix until tender. Remove from heat.
