How To Make Mrs Balls Festive Air Fryer Frikkadel

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mince, onion, garlic, carrots, ground cumin, BBQ spice, smoked paprika, fresh coriander, chili, Mrs Balls Jalapeno Chutney, and breadcrumbs. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until evenly combined.
  3. Avoid overmixing to keep the frikkadels tender.
  4. Roll the mixture into even-sized balls, about the size of a golf ball.
  5. Preheat the airfryer to 180°C. Lightly grease the airfryer basket or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
  6. Place the frikkadels in the basket, ensuring they don’t touch for even cooking.
  7. Air fry for 15–20 minutes, turning them halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve immediately with a generous of chutney and a side salad.
