Preparation

The first thing we'll do is boil rice until the "al dente" state, and while it's brewing, we'll make mincemeat. To do this, the previously washed and dried meat is cut into small slices and passed through a meat grinder or crushed in a blender. Onions and carrots are cleaned, shredded with small cubes and grinded through a grater, respectively. In a frying pan, warm up a little refined oil and pass the vegetables in it. Next, let the roast cool, mix with minced meat and boiled rice, add a squeezed clove of garlic, salt, a mixture of peppers, mayonnaise and mix well.

From the received weight we form round meatballs and we put them in the form for baking or the stewpan suitable for preparation in an oven. In a separate container, mix the water or broth with sour cream, tomato paste and flour, bring the mixture to taste with salt, ground with a mixture of peppers, herbs and spices of your choice, mix and pour on the meatballs in the form.

Cover the dish with a lid or tighten with foil and place in a preheated to 195 degrees oven for fifty to sixty minutes.

If desired, ten minutes before the end of the baking process, you can open the lid and pound the meatballs with grated hard cheese. We'll end up with a ruddy cheese crust.
