Method

Step 1 of 3

Put the onions, minced pork, parsley, cayenne, thyme, eggs, and flour in a mixing bowl, season well with salt and black pepper, then mix together with your hands for 5 minutes or until you have a chunky paste. Chill in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm the mixture up a little. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180°C .

Step 2 of 3

Take handfuls of the mixture and roll into balls about 5cm across - you should get around 24 in all. Place them on a large non-stick baking tray. Cut the tomatoes in half and place them skin-side down among the meatballs, so each meatball is in-between tomatoes and vice versa. Drizzle over the oil, sprinkle with the oregano, then cover the tray with silver foil.

Step 3 of 3

Cook in the oven for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and cook for another 30 minutes, or until nicely browned. Serve with fresh crusty bread and green salad.
