ROASTED CABBAGE WITH HARISSA BUTTER BEANS & BAKED FETA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Arrange the cabbage wedges in a roasting tin, drizzle over half the oil and sprinkle with the ras el hanout and some salt. Rub the oil and spices into the wedges to coat, then roast for 15 mins.
• Tip the butter beans, tomatoes, harissa, lemon rind and 1 tsp sugar into a bowl, season and stir to combine. After the cabbage wedges have had 15 mins, carefully pour the butter bean mixture in the tin around the cabbage. Put the feta on a baking tray lined with baking parchment, drizzle with the remaining oil and scatter with the chilli flakes. Return the tin with the cabbage and beans to the oven for a further 20 mins alongside the feta.
• Spoon the roasted cabbage wedges and beans onto plates or into shallow bowls along with chunks of the baked feta. Scatter with some parsley leaves and dill fronds, then drizzle with a little more olive oil before serving.

CRISPY BEAN CAKES WITH HARISSA, LEMON AND HERBS

Steps:

• Place the drained beans in a large bowl and crush using a fork or your fingers until coarsely mashed. Add the cilantro, dill, scallions, cornstarch, harissa, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest and stir to incorporate. Alternatively, you can incorporate ingredients using a food processor and pulse to combine.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg white until foamy and fold it into the bean mixture. Cover the mixture and refrigerate to chill slightly, at least 15 minutes, before shaping and frying.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, use a 1/4-cup measure to scoop portions of the bean mixture into the oil. Using the flat surface of the cup, press each scooped portion to tightly pack and shape it into a 1/4-inch-thick patty. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn using a wide spatula, and brown the other side, about 2 minutes.
• Remove cooked cakes from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels or a cooling rack on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the bean mixture is used, adding the remaining oil and removing any loose bits from the skillet as necessary. Return the bowl to the refrigerator in between batches to keep the mixture chilled.
• Serve lemon wedges alongside the crispy cakes for squeezing. Garnish with dollops of labneh, if using, additional fresh herbs and harissa for dipping.
