Little hedgehogs like from kindergarten
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. If you're making the minced meat yourself, mince the onion together with the meat right away. Cook the rice for the "hedgehogs" in advance until half-done, or, like me, just rinse it and pour boiling water over it, letting it soak for 20–25 minutes. Ready to cook? I'll explain in detail now. The finished dish can be served at the table.
