Rissoles

Rissoles are an economical everyday dish. When dining informally with a large group of people, you'll often find Rissoles on the menu especially if it's a barbeque.

Many Aussies buy uncooked ready-made Rissoles from their local butcher or at the grocery store. They usually come in a variety of flavours.

All you have to do then is cook them for a quick and easy meal.

We make our own Rissoles and triple the recipe. Then freeze the extra cooked Rissoles for future meals. You can also freeze them raw and cook them later.

We like our Rissoles cooked crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Just make sure it's thoroughly cooked inside.

Blend all ingredients well together.
Shape into flattened balls about 6cm ( 2 ½" ) in diameter for a main dish, smaller if serving with pasta or as an appetiser.
Put flour into a bag and then add 2 Rissoles at a time. Shake gently until the Rissoles are coated. Brush off excess flour before cooking.
Cook on the hot plate on the barbie or indoors fry for about 20 minutes turning and browning on all sides.

Rissoles can be served with tomato sauce or gravy as a main dish. They can also be eaten cold as a snack. Don't believe us? Leave a plate of them out and they'll soon disappear.
