Ina’s Tip

Don’t leave out the gelatine, it keeps the meatballs moist. They will freeze well, either raw or cooked

Method:

Sprinkle the gelatine over the minced meat. Mix all the ingredients for the frikkadels together with a small knife. Leave to rest for 10 minutes. Roll into small balls (a heaped teaspoonful, is the perfect size).

Mix the soft breadcrumbs and Chilli & Garlic Seasoning together for the coating. Roll the mini-frikkadels in the breadcrumb mixture. Refrigerate until ready to cook. Pan-fry in butter and oil. Serve warm or at room temperature speared on cocktail forks with Sweet Chilli Chutney for dipping.
