Ingredients for 6 servings:

  • 1 kg minced meat of your choice
  • 1 tbsp, str. Vegeta, Mediterranean
  • 4 tbsp, sautéed vegetables
  • 1 ½ tbsp, leveled cane sugar
  • 1 egg(s)
  • 1 shot of mineral water
  • 1 tsp, leveled paprika powder
  • ½ tsp, leveled chili powder
  • 1 onion(s) (size as desired)
  • 1 tsp, leveled garlic powder
  • 10 tbsp breadcrumbs

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Simply place the minced meat in a large bowl and add all the ingredients. Mix everything together and knead well, form into a large ball, and cover with plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator for a few hours to rest (approx. 2-4 hours), or use immediately. Then shape into the desired dish (meatballs, cevapcici, or burgers). Brown (cook thoroughly) in a pan or contact grill (I always use my Tefal contact grill). The cooking time varies depending on the quantity and thickness of the pieces. In a contact grill, the grill controls the cooking time. Bake in a fan-assisted oven at 200°C for approx. 30 minutes, turning after 15 minutes.
