Pistachio-Flavored Meatballs
Serves 4-5 | Preparation & cooking time ~45 min
I had pistachios left from the challenge; I added some into meatballs.
Instructions
Set the oven to 200°C (~390°F/gas mark 6, no fan). Grind the pistachios into coarse powder in a blender/mixer with the onion, garlic and coffee. Mix all ingredients and put small lumps with two spoons (or by hand) on top of parchment paper on a baking tray. Cook in the oven for 25-30 minutes until done and slightly browned.
Edit: I added the onion I forgot to mention earlier.
