Ingredients

This recipe requires a food processor and dutch oven or fryer.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine beans and roasted red peppers. Pulse until the mixture forms a smooth paste. Transfer the mixture to a medium-sized bowl and stir in grated onion, 1 egg, garlic, 1 cup (108g) breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
In a large dutch oven, heat frying oil on medium high - enough so the oil is 2 inches tall.
Take the remaining 2 eggs and whisk well in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl place the remaining cup of breadcrumbs. Using a rounded 2 tablespoon (30mL) portion of the bean mixture, form “meatballs” that are about 1.5 inches (4cm) wide by rolling between the palms of your hands. Roll the balls in the egg mixture and then in the remaining breadcrumbs. This yields 9-12 balls.
Carefully place the balls in the frying oil until they are firm and have developed a light golden brown coating, 2-4 minutes. Serve with sour cream or another favorite dipping sauce.
