Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground pork
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 50 grams Onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, almond flour, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, chopped onion, chopped parsley, and the egg.
Step 2
Season the mixture with oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well using your hands or a wooden spoon until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 4
Form the pork mixture into 1-inch balls using your hands. You should have about 16-18 pork balls.
Step 5
Heat olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the pork balls and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Step 6
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven or transfer the pork balls to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper if your skillet is not ovenproof.
Step 7
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the pork balls are fully cooked through.
Step 8
Remove from oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired. They pair well with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete keto-friendly meal.
