Meat and veggie balls

Meat and veggie balls

What you'll need:
500gms minced meat (i used beef but u can use chicken or pork)
1 carrot shredded/grated
1 zucchini shredded/grated
bunch of parsley chopped
1 egg
1/2 tsp of cumin
1 red onion finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic crushed


What to do:
Pre heat the oven to 180degrees and line a baking tray or 2.
In a large bowl add the mince, onion, garlic, egg, parsley, spices and egg and set aside.
With the carrot and zucchini you will need to squeeze the moisture out, so using a clean tea towel place the grated veggies in the middle and grab the corners of the towel and wring the veggies out, u will notice a fair bit of liquid comes out as these are juicy vegetables.
When u cant get much more liquid out, add to the bowl of mince. Mix thoroughly (i used my hands) until its all well combined. then roll into little balls, u can make them however big or small you like, place on the baking trays and pop in the oven for about 20 -25mins.
Take out once they're golden brown.
 




 I served mine with some zucchini spaghetti and kale and broccoli :)
