Ingredients

Chicken meatballs

  • 600 g minced chicken
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, grated or crushed
  • 1 egg
  • 50 ml milk or cream
  • 2-3 tbsp rolled oats
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Butter, for frying

Green goddess salad

  • 1 pointed cabbage also sold as sweetheart or hispi cabbage
  • 1 cucumber
  • 3 spring onions

Green goddess dressing

  • 75 g spinach
  • 2 spring onions
  • 1/2 pot chives from a living herb pot, roughly a small bunch
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 lemon, juice only
  • 70 g cashew nuts
  • 40 g Parmesan, finely grated
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt
  • Water

To serve

  • Bread, optional

Instructions

  • Put all the meatball ingredients in a bowl, season with salt and freshly ground pepper and mix the mince thoroughly. Leave the mixture to rest for 15-20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the dressing ingredients in a blender and blend until you have a creamy dressing. Adjust the consistency with water and season to taste with salt.
  • Shred the cabbage finely too – it should be cut almost into small squares. Dice the cucumber finely and slice the spring onions. Toss everything well with the dressing and set the salad aside.
  • Melt a generous knob of butter in a frying pan and let it foam up.
  • Shape the mixture into meatballs. Dip a spoon in hot water, scoop up a dollop of mince and shape it into a meatball between the spoon and the palm of your hand. Fry the meatballs until golden on both sides and cooked through in the middle – about 5 minutes on each side over a medium heat.
  • Serve the warm meatballs with the creamy cabbage salad and, if you like, some wholemeal bread.
