Lentil balls in tomato sauce

Ingredients

  • 200 g cooked green lentils
  • 1 egg
  • 6 tbsp breadcrumbs
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 300 g passata
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Contains: Egg, Wheat

Method

  1. Mash the lentils; your child mixes in the egg, breadcrumbs, carrot and oregano and shapes small flat patties.
  2. Fry in the oil 3 minutes a side, then simmer in the passata 10 minutes.
  3. Serve with pasta or bread. Cool.
Safety: Flat patties, not balls. Cool before serving.
Storage: Fridge 2 days, freezer 1 month.
Tip: Jobs for small hands: mixing and shaping. Meatballs with no meat, and iron all the same.
