Karen Mintzias
1 lb Lean beef or veal, ground
1 md Onion -- grated
1 Garlic clove -- crushed
2 sl Bread -- crusts removed
1 Egg -- lightly beaten
3 tb Parsley -- (minced)
2 Mint sprigs -- chopped
1/2 ts Ground allspice*
1 tb Dry red wine
2 tb Water (more if necessary)
Salt & freshly ground pepper
All-purpose flour
Oil for frying

*Note: Bread slices should be soaked in water, then squeezed dry.
*Ground cinnamon or corriander may be substituted for allspice if desired.
In a large bowl, combine the ground meat with the onion, garlic, bread,
egg parsley, mint, spice, and wine and knead for 2 minutes. The mixture
should be soft; add a few tablespoons of water if necessary. Season with
salt and pepper to taste, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Pinch off small pieces the size of walnuts or smaller and roll into balls
between your palms, then dredge lightly in flour. Heat the oil in a
frying pan to the smoking point, slip in the keftedes, and fry until
crisp, turning constantly with tongs. Remove with slotted spoon and drain
on absorbent paper. From: "The Food of Greece" by Vilma Liacouras
