Meatballs like in the cafeteria
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Canteen-style meatballs are very tasty and nutritious, and they are quite easy to make. Boiled rice must be added to the meat mince—it's what gives the meatballs a more tender texture. You can use any type of mince according to your taste preferences. Meatballs with sauce go perfectly with any side dish—pasta, grains, or boiled potatoes. The finished dish can now be served.
