Keftedes 🇬🇷 Crispy outside, soft in the middle 👌

#keftedes. #homecooking #greekfood #easyrecipe #fyp

Ingredients:

500g mixed beef and pork ( you can use just beef or lamb, whatever your preference)

1 red onion, grated (you can use white if you don’t have any red)

3 garlic cloves, minced

60g breadcrumbs ( I used ready made or you can used panko or fresh)

1 egg

60 g fresh parsley, finely chopped… keep some aside to sprinkle on top

6 large mint leaves, finely chopped

1 tsp dried oregano

2 tsp salt

1 tbs Black pepper

Olive oil for frying.

1 lemon

Flour for dusting

Method:

Mix altogether in a large bowl.

Place in fridge for an hour.

Then make small balls slightly smaller than the size of a golf ball.

Dust in flour.

Heat you olive oil in a pan… about two cms is enough.

Fry your keftedes in batches so not to overcrowd the pan.

Roll them around whilst cooking until they brown all over. They only take a few minutes.

Decorate with parsley and drizzle the keftedes with lemon.

Serve with a nice Greek salad, pitta bread and tzatziki.

Enjoy!
