BREADED MILLET, ZUCCHINI, AND CURRY BALLS

Ingredients for 10 balls (2 portions)   Preparation time: 60 min   Difficulty:  Average 

Ingredients

100 g (3.5 oz) of millet

1 onion

2 zucchinis

Curry and other spices (such as chili pepper, pepper, paprika)

Sesame seeds (black or normal ones)

Possible substitutes for sesame seeds: oat flakes or breadcrumbs

 

Preparation

Cook the millet. Stir fry an onion and add 2 zucchinis with curry, chili, pepper, paprika or other spices to taste. Combine the two preparations and let them cool down. Wet your hands and form ball shapes by lightly squashing the sides. Sprinkle them (coat them) with sesame seeds (or oat flakes or breadcrumbs). Bake them in the oven for about 20 minutes, turning them over halfway through cooking.

Suggestions

– on their own

– as a side dish to a vegetable dish or main course

– as a first course, accompanied with any sauce

– as meatball substitutes
