Lentil meatballs with tomato


Lentil metaballs with tomato gluten free

My daughter gave me a recipe for these patties, which she found I'm not sure where, quick to make and really very good and useful for recycling leftover lentils.

Ingredients for 2 people:

  • 250 g cooked lentils

  • 1 egg

  • 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese

  • ½ onion

  • 40 g gluten-free breadcrumbs

  • 1 clove garlic

  • salt, pepper

  • oil

For the sauce:

  • 500 ml passata

  • garlic

  • salt and pepper

Blend the lentils, onion, egg, breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.

If the mixture is too sticky, add a little more breadcrumbs.

Form patties slightly larger than a walnut and place them on a plate.

In a frying pan, brown the garlic clove, add the passata and cook with salt and pepper for about 20 minutes.

Add the meatballs into the sauce and cook for another 20 minutes on low heat with the lid on.

If the sauce gets too dry, add a little water to it.

If we do not have leftover lentils, ready-made ones can certainly be used.
