Tender, soft and very very delicious. For me and my kids they were just perfect, and only my hubby said that they could be more firm. But I think it’s just a matter of taste 🙂 . I prepared them already two times and both times some of the meatballs split, but it had only difference for look, not for taste.
Meatballs with a filling
Time needed:
Yields: 6 servings
Calories: 292 kcal / serving
Ingredients:
- For the meatballs:
- 500 g minced meat (poultry or pork)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsps. starch (next time I would use 3 tbsps.)
- 1 tbsp. mayonnaise

- For the filling:
- 2 hard boiled eggs
- 1 tbsp. mayonnaise
- 100 g cheese, grated
- For the sauce:
- 1 onion
- 1 medium carrot
- 200 ml cream
- 1 tbsp. flour
- 1 clove garlic
- butter for baking
- seasonings (salt, peppers and others)
Directions:
- First of all prepare filling – chop eggs and mix with cheese and mayonnaise. Season with salt and peppers.
- Mix all meatballs ingredients and season with seasonings.
- Pour to the pot water and put on the heat to boil. Meanwhile form meatballs and fill with the filling.
- When water will boil, lower the heat and put meatballs. Boil them for 5-10 minutes after they rise to the top.
- While meatballs are boiling, heat the pan, melt some butter and saute chopped onion with carrots (this time I used grated carrot, but for better look you should use thinly sliced).
- Mix flour with the cream and pour into the pan.
- Add crushed garlic clove.
- Season with salt and peppers or other seasonings.
- When sauce will start to thicken add meatballs and braise for 10 minutes.
- Enjoy!

Minced meat, onions and caraway seeds stew
This stew doesn’t require much of your time, it just needs time to braise. I think freshly baked buns would be perfect here, but I had no time for them, so we ate with white bread. Original recipe calls for a lot more caraway, but I adjusted the amount for my family taste. Also be careful with the salt if using stock or you can end up with too salty stew (as I do sometimes 🙂 ).
Layered salads with minced meat
This salads are quick and easy to prepare. We made them a couple of times last year, and remembered this year too. Although salad photo in a plate is not so good, but it taste very good anyway 😉
Beetroot soup with minced meat
Easy but substantial soup. Because of vinegar you can feel mild sourness, so you better pour vinegar not by milliliters but by your taste. And I can say one more thing – I’ve tasted delicious soup like this long time ago.
Home-made burger with Havarti cheese
When outside is so hot that no one wants to cook, but you get hungry anyway. Thus, in the late evening, when the weather began to cool down at least a little bit, we heated our hand-made grill and cooked burgers. Meat preparation is described below, and then all is left – to make your burgers to your taste and preferences. We used rolls, lettuce, tomato slices, several kinds of sauces and of course cheese. Burgers turned out incredibly tasty, perhaps because of the cheese, maybe because of grilled rolls, or maybe just because we did them at home after a very long break. They tasted even better than those bought for sure.
Cabbage and minced meat bake
Rather healthy and satisfying dish for cabbage lovers. My family liked it a lot, but I have to warn you – from the portions in the recipe you will make a lot of it. So if you want just to try it – make from half of the recipe.
