TIPS TO MAKE THE BEST RECIPE IN THE WORLD

  • Which meat to choose?  If you are going to prepare classic minced meatballs, we recommend you use quality ingredients, with well-chosen meats. So that the meatballs are not too dry it is necessary that the meat provides some fat, hence the ideal mixture for the meatballs is the minced beef and pork, as the latter will add juiciness to the meatball.
  • The crumb of bread soaked in milk is a fundamental ingredient to give consistency and juiciness to the meatballs. Once all the ingredients are mixed it is important to mix them well so that they are integrated.
  • Add ingredients to your liking: For example, chopped nuts such as almonds will give you a delicious flavor, as well as herbs such as parsley. Let's not forget the garlic, which we recommend removing the central bud to avoid indigestible.
  • Fried or baked? Although in the classic recipe the meatballs are lightly fried before integrating them into the sauce, they can also be baked lightly (about 20 minutes) to brown them, and this way you will avoid the oil grease. However, if the fries remember to drain them previously on kitchen paper before passing them to the sauce.
  • Can meatballs be frozen? With these quantities come to enough meatballs, you can freeze them once cooked with the sauce, this way you will have homemade meatballs in sauce ready for another day.
  • With what can you accompany the meatballs in the sauce? In addition to the baked potatoes, you can also accompany these meatballs in a sauce of fried potatoes, white rice, couscous or quinoa.
