🍳 How to cook (4 servings):

Cooking Time: 30 minutesPreperation Time: 1 hour

Grilled Meat Preparation

1. Begin by marinating the meat (roughly 100-150 grams per serving) in your choice of spices and condiments. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes to ensure the flavors are well-absorbed. 2. Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat. Grill the meat for about 5-7 minutes on each side, depending on its thickness, until it's beautifully charred and cooked to your preference. 3. Let the meat rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain its juices and ensure a tender bite.

Mashed Potatoes

1. Peel and cube the potatoes (150-200 grams per serving), then boil them in salted water until tender. 2. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add a bit of butter and milk (or a dairy-free alternative for a lighter version), and mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tomato-based Sauce with Beans

1. In a saucepan, combine tomatoes, beans, and your choice of herbs and spices. Let the mixture simmer for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. 2. Adjust the seasoning as needed and serve it warm over the grilled meat or alongside the dish.

Vegetable Preparation

1. Slice the bell peppers and zucchini (or similar squash) into pieces that are easy to handle and will cook evenly. 2. Lightly coat the vegetables with cooking oil, then season with salt and pepper. 3. Grill or roast the vegetables until they are tender and have a slight char, enhancing their natural sweetness.
