Calories: 298kcal
Ingredients
- 500 g Beef Mince
- 1 small Red Onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic finely grated
- 1 slice Bread toasted and soaked in water
- 2½ tsp Ras El Hanout
- ½ tsp Ground Ginger
- ½ tsp Cayenne Pepper more if you like it hot and spicy
- 1 tbsp Coriander finely chopped
- 3 tbsp Olive Oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Squeeze the water out of the bread and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the meat, onion and all of the other ingredients with the exception of the oil and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and mix again
- Using wet hands, divide the mixture into small meatballs. They should be slightly larger than a marble but not as big as a golf ball. Put the meatballs on a tray and put in the fridge for 30 minutes
- Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat. Drizzle the meatballs with the olive oil and fry in the frying pan for about 10 minutes, turning regularly to ensure they are cooked through and slightly charred
- Serve in pitta bread pockets with cherry tomatoes and pickled red onion. Enjoy!
