I have previously made these meatballs before however this time I have added sun dried tomatoes for extra flavour. As a substitute for mashed potato I have used cauliflower and parsnip mash. The cauliflower and parsnip has much higher nutritional value and a lot lower carbohydrate content.

Ingredients for meatballs:
400g of good quality mince pork
400g of good quality mince beef
1 egg
1 handful of sun dried tomatoes
Dried herbs
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Ingredients for cauliflower and parsnip mash and zucchini chips:
1/2 cauliflower
3 parsnips
2 Zucchini’s
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Method:
Pre heat oven to 180
Crack 1 egg into a large bowl and whisk
Add pork and beef mince into bowl, add salt, pepper, dried herbs and mix well with hands
Chop sun dried tomatoes and add to bowl
Line a large baking tray with baking paper
Roll portions of mince into balls and place on tray
Place in oven for 15 minutes

While meat balls are in oven you can prepare the the cauliflower/parsnip mash and zucchini chips

Parsnip mash
Chop cauliflower florets from the stalk and boil/steam until soft with parsnip
Strain and then add to blender with olive oil and blend until a paste like texture is formed

For zucchini chips, chop zucchini in half then lengthways into quarters
Lightly fry in frying pan with olive oil, salt and pepper
