- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp dried basil

Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Pan fry onion and garlic until onion is translucent.
- Place well-drained beans, mushrooms, paprika, oregano, basil, chilli, sea salt, tomato paste and parsley into your food processor and pulse until you get a chunky mixture. Do not over-blend.
- Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix through breadcrumbs.
- Roll into 10 balls. Use around 2 tbsp of mixture per ball.
- Pan fry balls for 2 mins so they get a crust and then transfer them to a baking tray and bake for 15 mins.
- While the balls are cooking, make the gravy. Add gravy ingredients to frying pan over medium heat and stir until well combined.
- Once the balls are cooked, add them to the gravy and cook for a further 5 mins on simmer.
