500 gr ground pork
500 gr ground veal
3 slices bread (soaked in water, then squeezed to remove liquids)
1 egg
1 Tbsp. ouzo
1 onion, grated
1 clove garlic,  crushed
1 Tbsp. parsley, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. mint, finely chopped
1 Tbsp. oregano
flour for dusting meatballs
sunflower oil or corn oil
salt and pepper to taste

In a bowl, combine the ground meat and the bread. Add the onion, garlic, parsley, mint, oregano, egg, ouzo, salt and pepper.
Use your hands to knead the ingredients,  adding water as needed to moisten the mixture. Roll into small balls, dust with flour and fry in plenty of hot oil. When browned all over, drain meatballs on absorbent paper to remove excess oil, then serve.
