\ud83d\udd2a Preparation
Prepare vegetables:
Peel and coarsely grate the carrots.
Peel and finely chop the onions.
Coarsely grate the cheese.
Mixing: In a large bowl, mix together the grated carrots, chopped onions and grated cheese.
Eggs and Spices: Add the eggs, salt, pepper and freshly chopped parsley. Mix together.
Thickening: Add the flour and breadcrumbs. Mix until the mixture comes together but is still manageable. (If it is too soft, add a little more breadcrumbs.)
Tip: Let stand for 5-10 minutes so the breadcrumbs can absorb the moisture.
Shaping: With wet hands, shape the mixture into medium-sized, flatter meatballs or patties.
Frying (In a frying pan):
Heat a little oil in a frying pan (over medium heat).
Fry each meatball until golden brown and crispy on both sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
Place the finished meatballs on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Frying (In the oven – Healthier version):
Place the meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Spray the meatballs with cooking spray or brush them lightly with oil.
Bake at 180 \u00b0C for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
You can serve it with yogurt sauce (with garlic or dill), fresh salad, or mashed potatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
