Serves 4
Preparation time: 20 minutes

Ingredients
500g Fresh Turkey Mince
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lemon, finely grated rind and 2 tablespoons juice
1/3 cup basil leaves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
800g Sebago potatoes, peeled, coarsely grated
2 tablespoons plain flour
1 egg, whisked

Tomato Chilli Sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 brown onion, finely chopped
400g chopped Italian tomatoes
1 small red chilli, deseeded, finely chopped
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon tobasco sauce

Method

1. Combine turkey mince, capers, lemon rind, lemon juice and basil leaves in a large bowl. Roll heaped tablespoons of mince mixture into balls and place onto a large plate. Continue to roll remaining mince mixture.

2. Place grated potatoes into a colander. Using your hands, squeeze as much liquid as possible from potatoes. Put potatoes into a large bowl. Add flour and egg to potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

3. Heat oil in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Add onion and cook for 3-4 minutes or until soft. Add tomatoes, chilli, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco sauce. Bring mixture to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until sauce mixture becomes thick. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Preheat grill or oven to medium heat. Spread meatballs evenly onto a baking tray and place in oven, or on grill. Cook until meatballs are browned and cooked through. Transfer meatballs to a large plate. Cover to keep warm. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to hotplate. Spoon 2 tablespoons of potato mixture onto hotplate, forming flat patties and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until crisp and golden. Serve meatballs with rosti and tomato sauce. Alternatively, rosti can be cooked in a frying pan on stove top.
