Recipe Tips & Tricks

  • Play around with the flavors. Italian seasoning + mozzarella or provolone cheese + sun-dried tomatoes. Oregano + Feta cheese with ground lamb.
  • Use any combination of ground meat that your family enjoys.
  • Serve with ketchup or barbecue sauce.
  • I used Red Boat Fish Sauce because Worcestershire sauce contains molasses.
