How to make it
- 1
Heat the barbecue to medium-high, set up for direct and indirect heat.

Blitz the chicken thigh fillets into mince unless you have bought ready-made mince. Mix the mince with grated onion, ground allspice, salt and black pepper.
- 3
Shape the mince into 12 large meatballs or patties. Thread them onto skewers for easier handling if you like.
- 4
Place the cauliflower florets in a barbecue-safe dish with 0.5 dl water, cover with a lid or foil and steam on the barbecue until tender, approx. 10-12 minutes.
- 5
Grill the chicken meatballs directly over the coals for approx. 8-10 minutes until nicely browned and cooked through (72°C).
- 6
Put the mushrooms in a small barbecue tray and let them soften and take on a smoky flavour for a couple of minutes at the side.
- 7
Drain off any excess water from the cauliflower. Mash the cauliflower with butter and lactose-free cooking cream to a smooth, creamy mash. Season with salt and pepper.
- 8
Serve the grilled chicken meatballs with the warm cauliflower mash and the grilled mushrooms.
Kitchen tips
- Use a fine potato ricer or masher to make the cauliflower mash really smooth.
- Skewers make it much easier to turn the meatballs without them sticking to the grill.
