Summertime calls for fresh BBQ inspiration – and who better to help us out with that than Callum Hann (previous MasterChef contestant and owner of Sprout in Adelaide). Callum has whipped up a fancy sounding but super simple, delicious summer dish: Za’atar pork with broccolini, carrot hummus & pomegranate dressing.
We invited Callum to road test our hydrogen powered BBQ as part of the process. Verdict: it’s exactly the same as cooking with a regular gas BBQ!
Za’atar pork with broccolini, carrot hummus & pomegranate dressing
Ingredients: (Serves 4)
- 1 tablespoon sumac
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (plus 2 tablespoons extra)
- 4x 120g porkerhouse steaks
- 2 bunches of broccolini, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
- juice of ½ a lemon
- ½ bunch of parsley, leaves picked
- 2 tablespoons roasted almonds, roughly chopped
For the carrot hummus:
- 2 carrots, peeled and quartered
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon extra
- 400g tin of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 tablespoons tahini 1 garlic clove juice of ½ a lemon pinch of salt
Method:
1. Combine sumac, sesame seeds, dried thyme, salt and one tablespoon oil in a medium bowl. Cover pork in the marinade and set aside for at least half an hour or overnight in the fridge.
2. Preheat oven to 200°C (fan forced). Place carrots on a lined baking tray and drizzle with honey and one tablespoon oil. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until tender. Allow to cool slightly, then transfer to a small food processor with remaining hummus ingredients. Blitz until smooth.
3. Heat a BBQ grill plate over medium-high heat. Cook pork for 3-4 minutes either side or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest before slicing. Meanwhile, cook broccolini on grill for 2-3 minutes or until tender and lightly charred.
4. Stir pomegranate molasses, lemon juice and remaining two tablespoons oil together in a small bowl.
5. Spread hummus between four serving plates. Arrange broccolini and sliced pork top. Drizzle over pomegranate dressing and garnish with parsley leaves and roasted almonds.
