Cashew-feta balls
19.12.2017
These little balls are tastiest in soup or on the side – and then preferably with a thick slice of bread and some pesto! Yes, you can wake me up for that, anytime! I always make a big batch of the balls at once and put half in the freezer so I always have some on hand. Also great when you have unexpected guests!

Hello. Did this recipe last week-end. Unfortunately even if it had a nice taste, it was not firm like your picture. It was sticky and mashed-up a bit after going to the fridge. Tried to had a bit a flour to dry it… any advice. Maybe cooked sweet potatoes too long… Thanks
renskroes.com is quite a good read. I just now sent this on 5/13/2019 to a colleague who has been involved in some work of her own on this topic. To say thanks, they just bought me lunch! So, I should probably say: Cheers for the drink!
