Ingredients:1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar with 1/4 Tsp Baking Soda and 1Tbsp warm water 1/2 cup dried cranberries 2 tablespoons fresh sage, minced (or 2 teaspoons dried) 1 tablespoon fresh parsley 2 tablespoons minced shallot 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
|
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon allspice 500g minced turkey (I recommend thigh meat for this recipe) Cranberry sauce for serving |
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius
First mix the water with cream of tartar and bi-carb soda and set aside.
Combine all remaining ingredients in a large bowl (or food processor) and mix well, then add the water, cream of tartar mixture and mix again.
Form meatballs with small scoop (1 Tablespoon for ‘meal sized’ 1 teaspoon for ‘snack sized’ or ‘kid sized’) and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake on a paper lined tray for 15-20 minutes depending on size of meatball. You can brown them first in a frying pan and then cook for 12 minutes if you prefer.
Serve with cranberry sauce.
Serves 8 as an appetizer or 4 as a main course
