Credit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q60GSKg7R_s
Ingredients
- 500 g minced meat
- 1 medium onion, finely diced
- 50 g oats or panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 medium egg
- Salt and pepper, unless the meat is already seasoned
- Oil for frying
- A splash of water
Steps
- Put the minced meat in a bowl. Add the oats, onion, cayenne pepper, basil, oregano, and egg. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Knead until everything is combined.
- Shape into 10 meatballs, approximately 60 g each, pressing them firmly enough to hold together.
- Heat a frying pan over medium to medium-high heat, then add oil.
- Add the meatballs, leaving space between them. Fry for 1–2 minutes per side, turning gradually until golden brown all over.
- Add a splash of water, cover with a lid or aluminium foil, and lower the heat.
- Steam for 5–10 minutes; the batch in the video took approximately 7 minutes. Check that they’re cooked through, then serve.
