Spinach Party Balls With Lime

This is my first Heart of the Matter recipe :). I am so excited because it's also the 1 year anniversary of this great project and I want to congratulate every single one of you who made it happen and kept it going.

This month’s theme is "Party Food" and here is my entry:




Ingredients for 15 party balls

• 3 Tbsp of scalded (cooked in salty boiling water for 3 minutes) spinach, drained and minced
• 3 Tbsp of grated raw carrot
• 3 Tbsp of diced orange bell pepper
• 2 Tbsp of lime juice
• 6 Tbsp of mashed potatoes (from baked potatoes)
• 2 cloves of garlic – finely minced (optional)
• Salt – to taste
• Ground pepper – to taste (optional)
• 1 handful of sesame seeds

Directions

Mix well all the ingredients except the sesame seeds and seasoning. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Take a small quantity of the mixture and, using both palms, form into 4-5 cm/1.5-2 inch balls.

Dip the spinach balls in the sesame seeds so that they only have one half covered in seeds.

Serve at room temperature.
