The Good Meatball
Soft, juicy meatballs for your little softies. The addition of zucchini and quinoa gives the beef meatballs a little extra goodness without forfeiting on taste.
500g beef mince
¼ cup grated zucchini
½ brown onion, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove
½ tbs dried Italian herbs
¼ cup cooked quinoa
1 cup of almond meal*
1 egg, whisked
1 cup of beef stock
1 cup of passata
Olive oil to fry
* For nut allergies, replace with ½ cup brown rice flour
Optional: Add 1 cup of almond meal to the meatball mix to bring it together. If there are nut allergies in the family, substitute the almond meal for ½ cup of brown rice flour.
Cooler nights call for slow cooked meats that fall off the bone, coated in a rich sauce and maybe some indulgent buttery mash too. Our marbled short ribs are braised for 3 hours and are infused with with tomato, red wine, garlic and oregano. Serve with parpadelle, polenta or mash, the choice if yours.
