    This was a big hit with the family. Delicious and tasty. I was skeptical about steaming  rather than frying but they were excellent.

    I cooked the balls in frypan, as opposed to steaming them and then soaked them in tomato/basil sauce and served with spaghetti. Delicious.

    NOTE to self:
    Made it again, this time baked the balls. Used 1.4 kg pork mince, 2 fennel bulbs, stalks for balls, with stack of garlic and onion. 2 jars of passata, with softened onion & chopped fennel bulbs (minus core), some fennel seeds, more garlic and some chilli, then low and slow,stewed balls after they were baked. SUPERB.
