Pork and mint meatballs

Ingredients (makes 18)

• 500 g pork mince
• ½ red onion, finely chopped
• ½ bunch mint, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp salt
• 1 tbsp cracked pepper
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 2 tbsp plain flour, plus extra,
• for coating
• ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

METHOD
In a mixing bowl, combine the pork mince, onion, mint, salt, pepper, egg and the two tablespoons of flour. Mix well.

Sprinkle the extra flour on a plate. Roll about a tablespoon of mixture in your hands to make a ball, then coat in the flour. Repeat until you have used all the mixture.

Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add the olive oil and fry the meatballs, turning occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until golden brown all over.
