DIY Eat – Beef Meatballs

These little meatballs are generally a success. They are easy to feed to your dog and don’t require too much chewing. You can give them throughout the day if your pet is only eating a little at a time. They are a little fatty so don’t give them to patients suffering from pancreatic or gastrointestinal disease.

Suitable for: dog, cat, ferret, turtle, lizard, human

Preparation time
Medium: 15–45 minutes

Ingredients

½ cup (125 g) cooked meat (yesterday’s roast, without the bones, works well)

Chopped parsley and sage

½ cup (125 ml) stock

2 Tbsp (30 g) flour 4 Tbsp (60 g) dried breadcrumbs

1 egg Extra flour

1 Tbsp (14 g) olive oil

Method
Mince the meat finely. Mix in saucepan with flour, herbs, and stock. Stir over medium heat until thick. Allow to cool, then form teaspoon-sized amounts into balls. Roll in flour. Dip into the beaten egg. Roll in breadcrumbs. Fry in a little olive oil.

Serve When cooled.
