Method

  1. 1

    Soak the breadcrumbs in the milk, then mix with the pork mince, egg yolk, half the garlic and the parsley. Shape into small meatballs.

  2. 2

    Heat half the oil and brown the meatballs all over, 4–5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining oil and soften the onion and remaining garlic for 4 minutes, then stir in the paprika, tomatoes and almonds. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Return the meatballs to the sauce, cover and simmer for 8–10 minutes until cooked through.

  5. 5

    Season to taste, then serve with the crusty bread.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 25 g parsley, 350 g pork mince and 985 ml milk. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
