Lemon Leaf Meatballs

Makes about 20

Ingredients:

Method:

  1. Soak the breadcrumbs in the milk for 10 minutes, then squeeze out excess moisture. In a large bowl, combine the bread, mince, seasoning, garlic, parsley, lemon zest and juice and soy sauce and mix well.
  2. Roll into 20 small balls and wrap each meatball in a lemon leaf.
  3. Thread the leaf-wrapped meatballs onto cocktail sticks and place on a baking tray.
  4. Grill under a preheated grill until the leaves are charred and fragrant and the balls are cooked, about 5 minutes per side.
  5. Remove from the oven and add a cocktail tomato to each stick. Cool before packing in a container.
