I am going to try these, I think the pork and veal mince would give them a lovely flavour, I have never added macadamia nuts to meatballs before, what a great idea! Thank you for sharing this recipe, I am going to try it out!

I am unsure about Veal… however the fact in has macadamias in it is a winner.

I use Ansell gloves whenever I cook anything messy. Makes it much easier when you need to go from prepping food to holding a child in a hurry.
