Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and chopped parsley. Mix gently until just combined.
  3. Scoop about a tablespoon of the meat mixture into your palm and flatten it. Place a small amount of grated cheddar cheese in the center and fold the meat around it to form a ball. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
