Tacos:

- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 tsp ground cumin

- 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup feta, crumbled or in blocks
- 1 tbsp macadamia oil
- 1 tbsp fresh oregano or dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb with the crushed garlic, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, salt, chilli flakes and parsley. Mix well.
- Place a heaped tablespoon of the lamb mixture onto each tortilla. Use the back of a spoon to spread it into an even, thin layer, going right to the edges.
- Heat macadamia oil in a large pan over high heat. Place the tortillas, meat side down, into the pan.
- Press firmly to “smash” them, using a spatula. Cook for 4 minutes, flip and cook for 30 seconds more.
- Repeat with remaining tacos.
- In a bowl, combine the cucumber, tomatoes, red onion and feta. Drizzle with macadamia oil, sprinkle with oregano, and season with salt and pepper.
- Top each taco with a generous spoonful of the Greek salad, Tzatziki and serve right away.

- 1 tsp garlic, finely grated
- 1 tsp ginger, finely grated
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 2 spring onions
- 5 slices white bread
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds

- Place the prawns, egg white, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sugar in a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Add the spring onions and pulse again to combine.
- Spread a teaspoon of the prawn mixture onto each piece of bread, going right to the edges.
- Dip the meat-side of the bread into sesame seeds and press firmly to coat.

- Serves: approx 20 dumplings
- Prep time: 20 mins
- Cook time: 120 mins
ingredients
- 500g chicken mince
- 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
- 1 red chilli, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp macadamia oil (for the filling)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Wonton wrappers (about 20)
- 3 tbs Macadamia oil (for pan-frying)
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (for crispy laced effect)
Method
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken mince, coriander, red chilli, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, macadamia oil, salt, and pepper.
- Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated. You can also use a food processor for this step.
- Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface.
- Spoon a small amount of the chicken mixture into the centre of each wrapper. Be careful not to overfill.
- Wet the edges of the wrapper with a little water, fold it in half, and pinch the edges tightly to seal, forming a half-moon shape or pleating the edges for a traditional dumpling shape. Repeat until all the filling is used up.
- Heat some macadamia oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, arrange the dumplings in the pan, making sure they’re not overcrowded.
- Cook the dumplings for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a smooth slurry.
- Once the dumplings are crispy on the bottom, carefully pour the cornstarch mixture around the dumplings in the pan, then cover the pan with a lid. This will create the crispy, laced effect. Let it steam for another 3-4 minutes, or until the dumplings are fully cooked and the lacing has formed.
- Remove the lid and let the dumplings cook for another minute to crisp up the bottom if needed.
