Method

1. Place all the ingredients (bar the oil for frying) in a food processor and blend until the mixture comes together in a sticky, well incorporated mix.

2. Using wet hands, roll into small, walnut sized balls.

3. Store in the refrigerator for at least 15 mins to set the shape.

4. Heat a pan over a medium heat. Grease with oil, then cook the meatballs in batches to ensure you don’t overcrowd the pan.

Delicious served in a broth or stock with asian greens, as protein rich snack dipped in my green goddess dressing,or topped in a quinoa salad.
