Why do cooked minced meat meatballs fall apart?

What is Cooked minced meat meatballs?
Cooked minced meat meatballs are made by seasoning ground meat, often with onion, shaping it into small patties or balls, and cooking it in a pan, oven or over a grill. Turkish köfte recipes vary by region and household; the seasoning and any additions to the mixture differ too.
In Turkey, they are commonly served hot with rice, bread, salad or grilled vegetables, and may also be tucked into a wrap. They offer substantial protein and vitamin B12, while their fat content makes them more filling than a lean meat dish.
