Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C(fan)/400°F/Gas 6.
- Add the broccoli to a pan of boiling water and simmer for 3 minutes. Drain and then add to a large bowl and mash until very fine.
- Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and mix well.
- Take out 1 tablespoon at a time and roll in to a small sausage and repeat until you have 20.
- Place on a lined or oiled baking sheet and cook in the oven for 25 minutes until they start to crisp up. Serve with your favourite dip.
Notes
- Use a mixture of broccoli and cauliflower, or just cauliflower to change things up.
- You can stick to just mature cheddar, or you can use a mixture of cheddar, Parmesan and mozzarella.
- Roll these in to balls, bake and then stir in to pasta sauce for some vegetarian meatballs.
- Get creative with the flavours! If you like things spicy, then add some Mexican seasoning.
- You can also make these crispier by swapping the wholemeal breadcrumbs for Panko breadcrumbs.
