Frikkadels

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

This is my grandmother's recipe and it trumps all the frikkadels I've enjoyed thus far! It contains at least one of your five a day and is so cheap to make. Ncinci's clever tip: add a couple of slices of milk-soaked bread. It adds succulence and bulks up dish, which means more meatballs!

Ingredients

500 g lean beef mince
2 large carrots, grated
1 large potato, grated
1 onion, finely chopped
10 g parsley, chopped
2 T steak rub
2 slices white bread
½ cup milk
4 T canola oil

Cooking Instructions

1. Combine all the ingredients except the bread, milk and oil. Mix well using your hands.

2. Place the bread on a saucer and pour in the milk in allowing it to soak into the bread. Break it up and add to the mince.

3. Flour a surface. Shape the mixture into bite-sized balls and place on a baking tray.

4. Heat the oil in a pan. Fry the frikkadels until golden brown and cooked all the way through, about 5 minutes. Serve with pasta, or mashed potatoes and veggies.
