Ingredients

The mince is kneaded with spices and stock, rested in the fridge, shaped into small rolls and grilled.

Minced meat and dishes made from it must always be fully cooked — including the middle.
Instead of street food or dishes that have stood on a buffet for a long time, choose a freshly cooked hot portion.

The centre must be fully cooked (71 °C) with no pink. Make them fresh at home rather than from street grills; use mustard from a sealed jar.

Refrigerate grilled meat within 2 hours and eat within 1–2 days. Keep raw and cooked meat in separate containers.

In a pan, oven or microwave until the centre is steaming hot, not just warm.

Low appetite. Gives a lot of energy and protein in a small portion — can help when appetite is low.
Weight loss. Energy-dense and easy to enrich (oil, cheese, yoghurt) — can help with weight loss.
