Dinosaur Eggs for Dinner

Here is the recipe for dinosaur eggs that I mentioned in the post "Frugal Friday - Family Fun for Cents". I'm sure they have a more adult name, but for the purpose of getting the children to eat them, we called them dinosaur eggs.

Dinosaur Eggs

Ingredients

• 250g premium beef mince
• one onion, pureed
• 2 icecubes pureed carrot
• 2 icecubes pureed courgette
• 1/4 c breadcrumbs
• 2 Tbspn oil
• 1/2 tsp oregano, dried
• 2c flour
• 3 tsp baking powder
• 25g butter
• 1/2 tsp salt
• Water, to mix
• Bought pasta sauce

Method
Using your hands, mix mince, breadcrumbs and puree's together. Form into small balls and put aside.

Melt the butter in a microwave safe dish. Sift flour, salt and baking powder together into a seperate bowl. Add oregano and butter. Using a breadknife, mix until forms a loose crumb.

Add water and knead until forms a scone dough.

Divide the dough into the desired quantities, making sure there will be enough to wrap around a meatball. Roll into balls and flattened until at least 10-15cm diameter.

Place one teaspoon of pasta sauce and one meatball on the centre of each scone disc.

Wrap the dough around the meatball and sauce, sealing on one side of the ball.

Place on baking tray and bake for 15-20 minutes at 180 degrees celcius or until lightly browned.

Serve and enjoy!
