Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 30 minutes Total: 50 minutes Number of servings: 4 Ingredients for meatballs: - 500 g mixed meat (pork and beef) - 1 medium onion - 1 egg - 1 large potato - 1 bunch of greens (parsley or dill) - Salt and pepper, to taste - 2-3 tablespoons of flour (to bind the mixture) - Oil for frying - 2-3 cloves of garlic (optional, for extra flavor) - Bread crumbs (about 50 g, to improve texture) Ingredients for white sauce: - 50 g butter - 1 tablespoon of flour - 20 g rice (optional, to thicken the sauce) - 300 ml broth (chicken or vegetable, as preferred) - 200 g sour cream Preparation method: 1. Preparing the meatballs: Start by peeling the potato and onion. Grate them finely. These ingredients will add moisture and texture to the meatballs. 2. Mixing the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the minced meat with the grated potato and onion. Add the beaten egg, finely chopped greens, salt, pepper, and if you like, a few crushed garlic cloves. Mix until all ingredients are well integrated. If the mixture is too wet, gradually add flour until the mixture becomes firm enough to shape the meatballs. 3. Shaping the meatballs: With wet hands, shape the meatballs to your desired size. In a separate bowl, you can place the bread crumbs, which will help absorb excess moisture and provide better texture. 4. Frying the meatballs: In a deep pan, heat the oil. When it is hot, add the meatballs and fry them on all sides until golden. The secret here is not to overcrowd the pan so they fry evenly. 5. Preparing the white sauce: In another pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and mix quickly to form a roux. Gradually add the broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. If using rice, add it now. Let it simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens. Finally, incorporate the sour cream and mix well until creamy. 6. Serving: Place the meatballs on a platter and pour the white sauce over them. You can garnish with a little fresh greenery for an attractive look. This dish pairs excellently with mashed potatoes or a fresh salad. Useful tips: - You can also add grated cheese to the meatball mixture for extra flavor. - If you want a healthier option, you can bake the meatballs in the oven at 180 degrees for about 25-30 minutes. - These white meatballs are also ideal to be served with a tomato sauce or a yogurt sauce for a diverse culinary experience. Enjoy these white meatballs with white sauce, a simple yet refined dish, perfect for any occasion!
