Method
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 10 mins until lightly golden. Add the garlic, fry for 1 min, then tip into a bowl and leave to cool for 5 mins.
- Add the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, nduja, egg, herbs, apricots and nutmeg to the onions; season. Mix well until the mixture is combined and sticks together. Shape into 12 ping-pong-sized balls and transfer to the fridge for 10 mins.
- Preheat the oven to gas 5, 190 ̊C, fan 170 ̊C. Put the stuffing balls on a nonstick baking sheet and brush with 1 tbsp oil. Roast for 20 mins until piping hot, and golden and crisp on the outside. When cooked, a metal skewer inserted into the centre will feel hot to the touch when removed. Transfer to a serving dish, leaving any excess oil on the tray.
