STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE
Step 1
Chop the onion very finely, fry in 1 tbsp. l. butter, 5 min. Add chopped garlic and minced meat, sauté over high heat, crushing the lumps with a spoon, until the meat changes color. Add salt, pepper and nuts and cook for another 2 minutes.

Remove the mint leaves from the stems, stack them, roll into a roll and chop thinly, then chop across. Combine the mint with the meat filling.
