Meatballs are small balls of meat that are included in the menu of medical, dietary and baby food. Breaded meatballs are juicy minced meat with a crispy crust. They can decorate not only dozens of dishes, but also serve as an independent dish.
Main Ingredients:
- 0.5 kg of ground pork and beef;
- 3 potatoes;
- 1 egg;
- 1 head of onion;
- 200 g breading;
- 30 g of 3.2% milk;
- non-iodized salt, pepper mixture.
Additional ingredients:
- 250 g sour cream (20%);
- 15 g flour (premium);
- salt.
Preparation:
- Boil the peeled potatoes, defrost the minced meat.
- Cool boiled potatoes, peel and crush in mashed potatoes, break a chicken egg to it, mix.
- Combine minced meat with potato and egg mass, stir thoroughly until smooth, set aside for now.
- Chop the onion as small as possible, fry in oil in a pan until completely softened. Cool after cooking. Then add to the minced meat.
- Pour milk into a separate bowl and add 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs there, mix so that there are no lumps. Send the resulting mass to a bowl with minced meat, also add a mixture of peppers and salt. The minced meat must be mixed well with your hands so that it turns out to be homogeneous and plastic.
- From the whole minced meat, form meat balls with a diameter of 3-5 cm. Roll each in breading. It is better to roll the meatballs with damp hands, so the meat will not stick to your palms.
- Heat a skillet with plenty of oil and add the rolled meatballs. Fry over medium heat on all sides until golden brown. Next, pour a small amount of water into the pan and simmer the fried balls for no more than 5 minutes. Then place all the meatballs on a platter.
- Do not pour out the contents of the pan, it will be needed to make sour cream sauce. Add flour to the remaining meat juice in a frying pan, fry for 5-6 minutes, add sour cream and salt, stir immediately so that there are no lumps. The sauce will thicken in just 1-2 minutes. The fire can be turned off, cover the pan with a lid.
When serving the meatballs on the table, do not forget to pour them with sour cream sauce; boiled potatoes with fresh herbs are suitable as a side dish.
