Difficulty

Serves 4

Prepare the tastiest meatballs like Mum used to make and accompany them with a refreshing mint dip to really bring out the flavour!

500 g minced veal

500 g minced pork

1 egg

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 slices day-old bread (crust removed) soaked in water and squeezed dry

½ cup breadcrumbs

½ cup fresh mint, finely chopped or 1 tsp dried mint

1 tsp oregano

1 clove garlic, crushed

2 Tbsp olive oil

Olive oil for frying

1 level tsp salt

1 level tsp pepper

250g strained MEVGAL yogurt

½ cup finely chopped mint

2 Tbsp olive oil

Salt

Put the minced meat together with all the other ingredients for the meatballs in a bowl.

Knead well, with wet hands, for several minutes until all the ingredients are evenly combined.

Leave the mixture to rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

With wet hands, shape into balls of uniform size, so that they all cook at the same time.

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan until smoking hot then add the meatballs. Cook turning until lightly browned all over.

Serve hot accompanied by the mint dip.
