When one side of the meatballs fried well, then it's time to flip. Now they are perfect even without the sauce to eat or you can pour the sauce which I put the recipe in here. This sauce makes them incredibly delicious.

If you added tomato sauce, let them be medium-heated for about 5-10 minutes. When it comes to decorating, minced parsley is the best choice.

Tips and tricks

  • This is a foreign recipe for meatballs and it is different from our homemade stew meatballs.
  • For making it healthier I used just a little bit of oil but if you want to have perfectly round and beautiful meatballs, fry them in a high amount of oil.

Background & History

Meatballs have different types which all combined with ground beef and sometimes with other ingredients such as bread crumbs or rice. This is pure comfort food and the recipe is the best and easiest one!
