Ingredients

  • 500g ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 tablespoons flour

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, Marmite, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
  3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent.
