I'm Buddy and today I'm going to show you how to make some hidden
veg meatballs. So what we have to do is grate our hidden veg first
and what we're going to do first is our courgette. Is there only one courgette?
So we're going to do one courgette. We're going to use a box cutter and we're
going to use this side. Box grater, I mean
And we're just going to go for it and this is a great one to do because there's not
much cutting involved. So now we move on to the mushrooms, we
have to do six, so one, two, three, four, five, six. And we just do
those. These are actually really easy to grate
But just mind your hands and fingers because you don't want to go like that
So we're gonna get our onion and we're only gonna use one. We can just
use a knife to cut the top off, and we just
This is slightly harder than the mushrooms… So, normally I'd be wearing my
goggles for this because, you know, you can cry with this,
but this one's not too bad, so you don't have to get the goggles out
Grow, grow, grow away! So all we have to do is add two garlic cloves and then you can
reveal the tower. And now for the big reveal…
That was underwhelming! That's just great. So I'm going to put this in a bowl for
later. So we would let this fry for 10 minutes and let it cool
and make it all nice and soft, but
we have this one over here and that's nice and cool
and ready to go. And now we have to add our beef mince and pork mince, and now
you're going to add our breadcrumbs and our Parmesan and
then we're going to add our egg
That's a good egg, I think. I like the colour of it, so… Now this is a fun part
when you squeeze it and squish it into
a sort of mixture. I just bursted that egg and it felt wrong
Make sure you have nice clean hands. So we're gonna have a little clean down
and then we're gonna make them into meatballs
So we've had a little clean down and now we're going to roll our balls. So
you need a bowl of water so it keeps the meat stop sticking to your hands
like that, see, no meat on my hands! So, we've got our hands nice and wet now
we're going to roll them into balls… So this is the size that you need it. Put
that on a tray. OK, we're doing my last one now, there
we go and I've done my balls! And now we're
going to fry these in the pan and we're going to eat them! And now we
can turn the gas on and then we put some oil in
there, not too much. In a minute when it's heated up we can
put our balls into the pan and it can cook
And whilst that pan is heating up it's a perfect opportunity
for you to tell me what to cook next. OK, so I'm here with my friend Jeff
and he says anyone that says #Jeff
is good and they should like the video. So I think our
pan is hot enough now and we can go with Jeff first because he's a special one
Um, so we just pop him in
They're frying! Last one… Sadly not Jeff, he's gone, so
they're cooking and every minute or so you should turn them over
and then they'll be golden brown. So I'm gonna give our meatballs a flip
got a little spatula here, spatula thing. So we made a bit of space
here and we can put our garlic in. We've got
some garlic here, I'm going to just chop that up. So I've
chopped it up into pieces, then you can use the cross chop method
to chop it up into even smaller pieces. So,
now we can put that in the gap where we made it here
to give that a little fry. Lovely hidden vegetables, you can't see it,
but if you, if you look, here's Jeff. Don't they look great? I'm excited to eat them!
So the garlic's done and now we need to add some tomato passata
There we go. So you can get an adult to do this because this is actually really
hot. I'm just pouring some of this tomato
sauce onto the meatballs. And now we're gonna cook
these for 30 minutes until they're nice and cooked
So I've done my meatballs and my sauce has thickened up
and whilst that was happening I made some pasta,
spaghetti. And what we can do, let's get our plate here,
get a bit of pasta there. And now we've done that, our meatballs
are done and we can scoop some of my meatballs and our sauce
into our pasta. There we are! And that's our plate of meatballs and
pasta, and to top it off we can put this on top
We've also got a grater and some Parmesan, so we can just
get some Parmesan in there. And this is when we try our hidden veggie
spaghetti meaty balls and get some of that…
That's good! Give me 10 minutes and this will be gone
