Morrocan Meatballs (or Rissole or Hamburgers!)

200g minced meat
5cm stick of celery diced fine
1/4 onion grated
1/2 zucchini grated

Shape into little 3cm wide  patties. I did flat hamburger shapes, but you could do round meatballs, which stay nice a juicy on the inside after cooking). 

I layered the patties with baking paper ready to be frozen. I can just take out a few at a time so she doesn't get bored (the princess she is !).
