Working from home during the school holidays is no mean feat. Everything takes three times (at least) as long to do when you factor in all the calls of 'I'm hungry', 'Can you give me a lift Mum', 'can you play with me' and 'what are we doing today'. So by the time the call of 'what's for dinner' comes along I suddenly realise that I've not even thought about it.
These pork patties are a variation of a meatball - instead of being a ball, they're flat! They're so easy to make that the kids could make them (if someone would just tell my kids that please), and as long as you've got some mince in the fridge they could be on the table within 30 minutes.
I could've served these in a tomato sauce but then I may as well have just made meatballs, and I wanted mine with a salad, so I served them alongside some ready made barbecue sauce and potatoes from the allotment, making this a pretty healthy meal all in all, and minus the bbq sauce it's pretty clean too.

750g lean pork mince
handful of fresh mixed herbs, finely chopped

- Mix all the ingredients together until well combined
- Form into balls and then flatten
- Once all the patties have been formed, heat a little oil in a non stick frying pan
- Fry the patties for a few minutes on each side, until cooked through - you may need to do this in two or more batches
- Serve immediately
