    1 pound ground beef*
    1/2 cup grated onion
    1 tablespoon minced garlic
    1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
    1/4 teaspoon dried mint
    salt and pepper to taste

    1 egg

    Mix meat, onion, garlic, oregano, mint salt, and pepper.

    Remove crusts from bread slices and moisten in wine or water. Add bread and egg to meat. Knead mixture.

    Shape into 1-inch balls, roll in flour, and saute in hot vegetable oil. Remove when meatballs are cooked and browned on all sides.
