  • ¼ tsp coarse salt
  • 25 g butter

Raspberry dressing

  • 1 tbsp dark balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp coarse salt
  • freshly ground pepper

Salad

  • 200 g finely chopped oxheart cabbage

  • 1 cucumber in half slices
  • 75 g dried cranberries
  • 100 g raspberries

preparation

For the beef meatballs

Combine the minced meat with the cheese, onions, rolled oats and salt. Shape into 12 oblong meatballs. Brown the butter in a frying pan, then cook the meatballs on 3-4 sides over a medium heat for approx. 14 min. – turning occasionally.

Raspberry dressing

Mash the raspberries and whisk in the vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Season the dressing – it should be spicy.

Salad

Press salt into the oxheart cabbage until it softens slightly to make it easier to eat. Arrange the cabbage, cucumber slices and cranberries on a bed of spinach leaves. Pour a little dressing over and garnish with fresh raspberries. Serve the salad with the rest of the dressing, warm meatballs and lightly toasted rye bread.
