Beefy Habanero and Chorizo Meatballs

in #recipes8 years ago

More balls! This time beef and chorizo with cheeky hot habanero!! A taste SENSATION! I promise also that this will be my last balls related post of the week. Honest!

It's so easy. Let's get the balls rolling!

You will need

450 grams of lean ground beef
10 thin slices of chorizo
1 small onion
1 medium egg
1 ripe red habanero
1 teaspoon of ground cumin
1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
2 cloves of garlic
Some sea salt

To make

Finely chop your garlic, onion and habanero. Give them a fry on a medium/low heat for two minutes.

Finely slice your chorizo and dump it with your minced beef into a big bowl before adding your cumin and smoked paprika. Once your onion, garlic and chilli mix has cooled, bang them in as well.

Now add your egg, a good pinch of salt and pepper and squeeze the mix between your hands for a minute until combined well.

Now the fun bit. Kind of. Well no it's the manky, meaty rolling up balls bit. Roll the mixture into ping pong sized balls.

Look at those lovely meaty balls!!! Somebody cup them!!

Some people let their balls rest in the fridge but I have none of that nonsense and whip them into a pan toot sweet. Fry on a medium heat for eight minutes.

And that's it! Amazeballs of spiciness!

Have with some nice leaves

Or storm up a quick sauce and have with spaghetti!!

Amazeballs! Literally!

Sort:  

Mmmmmm... Meatball all the things! Stuffing it with cheese could be a good addition!

They look so good both before and after cooking.

Thank you! I did like the way they looked before as well

Now I thought about a more extended comment but somehow they all come out ambiguously naughty. And then I would have to use the NSDWFDBTW, or whatever that one tag is called.

So, I leave it at that they look delicious Mate! =D
