ONE STEP AT A TIME
Let's make it.
Soak the crumbs

Shape and chill
Mix with the mince, water, starch, mustard and seasonings. Shape into evenly sized meatballs and chill for 30 minutes.
Cook on cast iron
Preheat a cast iron plate with the grill set around 200°C for indirect cooking. Fry the meatballs, turning for an even colour, until the centre reaches 71°C. Cook in batches rather than crowding the plate.
