Instructions
- Divide the ground meat into 3 oz (85g) portions and roll each portion into balls.
- Place each ball between two pieces of parchment paper.
- Use the flat side of a mallet to flatten them into thin rounds.
- To make the sauce, combine all the sauce ingredients together and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to use.
