Okay I have never eaten these and only know what they are because I asked
someone some years ago. They were mentioned on "Are You Being Served" and
that is how I heard of them.

I did look them up online and it would appear that they are meat and
vegetables formed into patties, then baked or fried. Are the breadcrumbs
necessary? Breaded food is not something I eat much of.

If I use plain ground beef I add binders, usually eggs and crumbs or
flour. But in my house as a child rissoles were made of half ground beef
and half sausage mince (if you don't call it that then it is the smooth
stuff not lumpy as in regular ground (minced) meat). Mum mixed it
together with chopped onion (none for me), salt, pepper and tomato
sauce - I used tomato paste. It comes out firm, not crumbly (for want
of a better word) like a meatball when cooked.
