Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 3 stalks parsley chopped
  • 1/2 onion thiny chopped
  • 1/2 green bell pepper thinly chopped
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 finely grounded cream crackers
  • 1 garlic optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt or as required
Instructions

  1. Put all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix together by hand or a wooden ladle till well blended. Scoop tablespoons full of the beef and roll into balls.

  2. Heat oil in a frying pan enough to fry the beef balls. Put the back of a wooden ladle in the oil. If the oil bubbles around it, then it is hot enough to fry. Put the beef balls one at a time into the oil. Fry till brown and turn the beef to fry on the other side. Fry all till done. The beef is cooked through when it is no longer pink in the inside.

  3. Alternatively, preheat an oven to 180°C or 350°F. Line a baking sheet with baking and arrange the beef balls on the pan. Bake in the oven for 25 to 35 minutes til cooked through.

  4. Serve with your favourite sauce of choice.
