Ingredients

  • 500 g (1 lb) minced cooked liver, offal or leftover meat
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 250 g (½ lb) boiled rice
  • 1 egg
  • 5 g (1 teaspoon) garlic powder or 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 5 g (1 teaspoon) garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) freshly ground white pepper
  • wholemeal breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs, beaten with 15 ml (1 tablespoon) milk
  • 250 ml (8 oz) vegetable oil for deep-frying

Directions

1

In a bowl, combine the meat, onion, rice, egg, garlic powder or chopped garlic, garlic salt and pepper. Mix well to form a firm dough.

2

Form into small balls (the size of table tennis balls). Roll each ball in the breadcrumbs and then the egg and milk mix. Heat the oil in a frying pan and, when hot, fry the balls until cooked inside and golden on the outside (check the first one cooked). Drain and serve with fresh greens as a snack.
