Minced meat meatballs with rice in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make minced meat meatballs with rice in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Minced meat can be used from any kind of meat. It can be chicken, beef, turkey or pork. I'm going to cook with minced pork.

2. Step 2:

   

   Dip the rice in boiling water and add a little salt. Cook the rice for 10-15 minutes until half cooked. During the cooking time, follow the instructions on the package. The rice will increase in volume, but the core will still be firm. Then throw the rice into a colander so that excess water runs off it.

3. Step 3:

   

   To make meatballs, combine the prepared minced meat and finely chopped onion.

4. Step 4:

   

   Then add the cooked rice and egg. Add a little salt and spices to taste. As a spice, I take a little ground pepper and paprika.

5. Step 5:

   

   Mix all the ingredients well and beat the mass on the bottom of the bowl so that the meat mass becomes denser. Thanks to this, the meatballs will not fall apart when cooking.

7. Step 6:

   

   Separately, finely chop the second onion and grate the carrots. Pour a little vegetable oil into a hot frying pan and fry the onion and carrot for 2-3 minutes.

   Then pour some flour into the pan. Mix it up.

9. Step 8:

10. Step 9:

    

    From the resulting meat mass, make small meatballs and put them in a frying pan, in a boiling sauce. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer the meatballs over low heat for 30 minutes. In the process of cooking, you can turn them 1-2 times. If the water boils a lot, then you can add a little more hot. The more water there is, the more gravy there will be. And she is very tasty!
