Instructions

Rissoles

  • Blitz twisties in a food processor until they are like breadcrumbs
  • Combine grated onion & twisties together
  • Add remaining ingredients and combine using your hands
  • Form golf ball sized balls (approx. 50g) and then flatten them gently so they are about 1-2cm thick
  • Place on a plate/tray and leave them firm up in the fridge while you prepare the pumpkin puree
  • On a low-medium heat fry the rissoles in batches until golden brown (3-4mins per side), allow to rest for 2 minutes before serving. When placing the rissoles in the pan gently press them down to hold their shape

Pumpkin Puree

  • Dice pumpkin into 1cm cubes
  • Place in a saucepan w/ butter, stock, garlic and a little salt
  • Bring to boil, cover and simmer for approx. 8 mins or until pumpkin is fork tender
  • Place the pumpkin along with a splash of the simmering liquid into a food processor and blend until smooth – adding more liquid as necessary

Other

  • Combine pickled onions with parsley leaves and some chopped parsley for garnish

Notes

Tips/Tricks

  • use beef that has a little more fat going through it (80:20) is good – this helps to keep the rissoles moist
  • allowing them to firm up in the fridge helps to keep their shape
  • gently press the rissoles in the pan to keep their slight disc shape – don’t press too hard as you don’t want to squeeze out all the goodness! ALWAYS let your meat rest prior to serving
