- 1 medium onion
- 3 cloves of garlic
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 bunch of parsley
- 200 g of breadcrumbs
- 50 g of sesame seeds
- 2-3 tablespoons of oil

- Peel the potatoes and mash them together with the broccoli into a paste. Add spinach with onion and garlic and season everything well with salt and pepper.
- Heat the oven to 200 °C. Take part of the mixture with a spoon and form balls. Roll the balls in a mixture of breadcrumbs and sesame seeds, place them on an oiled baking sheet and flatten them slightly. Spray with oil and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown.
