Keftedes (Meatballs)

Makes: 20-30 meatballs

You will need

600g ground pork meat (mincemeat)
1 large onion (finely chopped)
100g fresh parsley (finely chopped)
1 cup of breadcrumbs 
1 egg 
1/2 tsp cinnamon or all-spice
1 tbsp salt and freshly milled pepper to taste 
Corn oil or Vegetable oil or olive oil for frying

Method

1. Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
2. Once ready to cook add about an inch of the oil to a hard-base frying pan and heat.
3. Take small amounts of the mincemeat mix and form small balls of about 1 1/2 inches diameter and add to the frying pan. Do this in batches of 4 or 5 balls at a time. Fry them for a few minutes on one side and roll the balls over and fry the other side.
4. Remove when browned all over and add to kitchen paper covered bowl to soak up the excess oil.
5. Serve as part of a meze or for a quick snack.
