Delicious lunch for pirate party

I came across another recipe for the pirate party at a danish website which is good and healthy(which is just a plus).

 

Cannon balls (about 160 pcs.)

• 1 ½ kg minced beef (about 6% fat)
• 4 tsp salt
• 1 ½ cups finely grated yellow onions
• 3 small crushed clove of garlic
• 3 eggs
• 4 ½ cups milk
• 2 ½ cups bread crumbs
• 75 g butter for frying
• 24 slices of rye bread
• 250 g butter
• 12 slices of light sandwich bread
• 4 cucumbers (about 1400 g)
• 24 bamboo skewers – approx. 20 cm long
• 600 g cherry tomatoes
• 6 bananas (about 1200 g)
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 600 g mild cheese

 

Heating time for “cannonballs”: About 5 min. at 200 °.

 

Preparation of the “cannon balls”:

1. Stir the minced meat with salt in ca. 1 min.
2. Add Onion, garlic and eggs in.
3. Stir milk in gradually and then add bread crumbs.
4. Place the stuffing covered in the refrigerator for approx. ½ hour.
5. Split stuffing into 3 portions. Let 2 servings stand covered in the refrigerator.
6. Form the third portion small meatballs (about 1 tablespoon).
7. Let 1 / 3 of the butter until golden in a pan. Fry the meatballs over a moderate heat on all sides (about 5 min. In total).
8. Shake the pan occasionally so that the “cannon balls” retain the round shape. Shape and fry the rest of the stuffing (1 portion at a time).
9. Gather all “cannon balls” in a baking pan lined with baking paper.
10. Add the slice bread with butter and place them 2 by 2
11. Cut each “slice bread” into 4 triangles.
12. Prepare sandwich bread the same way (cut if necessary. Crusts of).
13. Cut cucumbers into 1-inch thick slices and arrange them on bamboo skewers alternating with tomatoes.
14. Cut each banana into 4 pieces and dip the cutting surfaces in lemon juice.
15. Cut cheese into small strips.
16. Warm “cannon balls” in the middle of the oven at the end.

Serve each portion plate: Two dark and one light sandwich piece a spear, a piece of banana, cheese sticks 2-3 and 6-7 “cannonballs” in a pile.
