Meatballs in sour cream sauce will be an excellent option for dinner. It is not difficult to cook them, but the taste is excellent. In addition, this dish is not at all expensive, products for it are often in the refrigerator.
Meatballs are a dish made from minced meat or fish that is larger than meatballs and smaller than cutlets. Unlike cutlets, meatballs are breaded only with flour, cutlets are often breaded with breadcrumbs. In addition, vegetables and cereals are often added to minced meat for meatballs, for example, rice, slices of tomatoes, mashed potatoes. Meatballs are usually served with sour cream or tomato sauce, sometimes sour cream and tomato sauce.
The origin of the dish is attributed to the Turkic peoples. There meatballs were cooked with thick gravy. As a rule, fried onions were put in the gravy, tomatoes or garlic were added to the meat broth, flour was added to thicken, and sour cream for taste.
Meatballs in sauce can be cooked both in the oven and in a pan. This article presents a recipe for cooking in the oven.
For cooking, it is better to use fatty meat, ideally if you take a combination of pork and beef in proporia one to one. If rice is added to the minced meat, then it must be either steamed or cooked until half cooked. So the rice will absorb the taste of meat, boil down and the meatballs will become even tastier and more satisfying.
