      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

  1. NOTE - the bread will give you a softer meat ball soaking up the onion and garlic juices

    Place bread onion and garlic into the bowl and chop 5 seconds, speed 6 - scrape down bowl
    Break up the mince and add to the bowl with the egg, and mixed herbs and tomato paste - use the dough function for 30 seconds - with your spatula mix the bottom of the mix to the top and repeat the dough function for 30 seconds

    Scoop a plum size meat mix with a spoon and roll to a ball - you should get around 18 delicious meat balls

    I cooked mine in the air fryer 200 deg 10 minutes, turned them over and cooked another 10 minutes
    Oven preheat to 180 fan forced and cook on a tray lined with baking paper for approx 30mins

    These are delicious served with the Capsicum tomato and chilli chutney or added to your favourite passata and served with pasta
