Directions




For the BBQ sauce
Reduce the pineapple juice with 1 tsp salt over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir in the espresso and agave syrup with the bamix® whisk and continue to simmer for approx. 15 minutes until the liquid has a syrup-like consistency. Then stir in the harissa and tomato ketchup.
For the bean balls
Rinse the kidney beans. Finely chop the onion and garlic with the bamix® Processor. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan and sauté the onion and garlic until light yellow.
Put the contents of the pan into the bamix® 1.0 l jug together with the beans, oat flakes and mustard. Coarsely purée everything with the bamix® multi-purpose blade, so that pieces are still visible. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Form 8 to 10 balls (approx. 10 cm Ø) from the bean mixture, then heat the remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry them on both sides for 3 to 5 minutes over medium heat.
For the oven-roasted potatoes
Preheat the oven to 220 °C. Cut the potatoes with the skin into slices about 0.5 cm thick. Mix the potato slices with oil, paprika powder and cayenne pepper. Season with salt and pepper. Bake the potatoes in the oven for about 15 minutes. Turn and bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.
