Print recipe

Ingredients

  • 150g Panko
  • 120ml Milk
  • 500g Minced Turkey Breast
  • 250g Minced Turkey Thighs
  • 60g Onion (very finely diced)
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Rosemary (about 2 sprigs - finely diced)
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (finely diced)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 60g Parmigiano Romano (finely grated)
  • 1 Large Free-range Egg
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, place the breadcrumbs and milk and allow the milk to soak in
2. Follow with the meat, onions, herbs and seasoning and cheese
3. Mix the egg, oil and Worcestershire sauce and add that to the mixture
4. Using clean hands, squish all the ingredients together until very well mixed
5. Using a meatballer, form the mixture into balls on a greaseproof paper-covered baking tray. If you find the mixture sticks to the baller, have a jug of cold water next to you, and between each scoop, dunk the baller in the water and shake off excess
6. Pre-heat the oven to Gas Mark 4 / 180ºC / 350ºF
7. This recipe makes quite a lot of meatballs, so place on a lightly greased baking tray the meatballs you wish to cook. Place the rest on the original tray in the freezer until hard, then decant into portion sized bags once firm
8. Bake for 20 minutes
9. Serve with pasta and a tomato sauce, or with gravy and mash
