Description

Ingredients

• 500g / 1 lb beef mince (ground beef)
• 1 tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 1½ tsp Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (or ¾ cup normal breadcrumbs)
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp oil
• 6 - 8 processed cheese slices (Note 1)
• Baby gherkins
• Ketchup, to serve

Directions

• Place Meatball ingredients in a bowl and use your hands to combine.
• Refrigerate for 30 minutes (firms up, easier to handle). If in a rush, add more breadcrumbs until mixture is roll-able.
• Scoop up heaped tablespoons and dollop onto work surface with the flick of the wrist. Repeat with remaining mixture. Then roll into balls.
• Cut cheese into small squares to top each meatball.
• Cut larger gherkins in half, lengthwise.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add meatballs in batches and cook, shaking the pan so they roll around, until browned all over and cooked through - 5 minutes. Between batches, drain excess oil (but keep some to cook next batch).
• Place cooked meatballs on a large plate that fits in your microwave. Top with cheese and a gherkin and secure with a toothpick.
• Microwave for 60 - 90 seconds or until cheese melts. Serve warm with ketchup!
