Ingredients

  • 500g lean beef or pork mince
  • 1/3 cup DOLMIO Pesto 165g - Sun-dried tomato
  • 1 onion, grated
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ jar DOLMIO Traditional Bolognese Classic Tomato Sauce

Cooking Instructions

Combine mince, pesto, onion and 1 tbsp of the parsley into a bowl. With clean hands mix ingredients together well and roll into balls about walnut size.

Heat oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat and pan-fry pesto balls for about 10-12 minutes. Turn occasionally to lightly brown
all over.

Meanwhile combine the DOLMIO® sauce and remaining parsley in a bowl and stir.

Serve pesto balls warm with sauce, which can be served cold or slightly warmed.

Note: These pesto balls will cook very well on the BBQ plate. Lightly spray the plate with oil and cook over a medium heat for the same time as above.
