Ingredients

  • 500g Beef Mince
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 zucchini, grated
  • 3 shallots
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons ginger, grated
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons caster sugar
  • 2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
  • 150g snow peas, sliced
  • 4 broccolini, sliced into pieces
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon cornflour
  • Serve with steamed rice and vegetables of choice

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, sugar, ginger, garlic and shallots. Set aside whilst you prepare the mince.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the mince, carrot and zucchini together. Pour in half the sauce. Mix well with your hands. If preparing ahead of time, cover the bowls with glad wrap and place in the fridge until needed.
  3. Roll the meatball mixture into golf sized meatballs. I like to use a cookie scoop as they make the perfect sized meatballs. You can also use a heaped teaspoon or dessert spoon.
  4. Heat a large frypan over medium-high heat and cook meatballs, turning occasionally until well cooked.
  5. Cook the rice and vegetables whilst the meatballs are cooking.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the cornflour and water together and add to the remaining sauce and gently stir until well combined.
  7. Add the sauce to the meatballs and stir gently until the sauce thickens and bubbles. Boil for 1-2 minutes. Continue stirring occasionally until the sauce becomes thick and glossy.
  8. Serve immediately over rice with the steamed vegetables.

Notes

You can serve the meatballs with steamed vegetables and rice or as an appetiser.
