What cereal to cook meatballs with: a variant of a hearty budget dish

Meatballs are a versatile meat dish that cooks much faster than cabbage rolls or dumplings or vareniki. The main thing is to choose the right products to make the structure juicy and soft. To do this, add a variety of cereals. Bulgur is the best choice for this. It does not turn into porridge, remains crumbly, and does not make the meat dry. In addition, this dish is much more budget-friendly.

The idea of cooking meatballs with bulgur was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Anastasia Baglay (nastya_food_baglay).

• boiled bulgur - 150 g
• minced meat - 250 g (veal, chicken, pork).

• tomatoes - 2 large
• cream 20% - 200 ml

Cooking method:

1. Mix the meat with the cooked bulgur.

2. Add spices.

4. Blend tomatoes with a blender, add cream, a few spices.

5. Add to the meatballs, and simmer under the lid for 15-20 minutes.
