Since the times of ancient Persia, such a phenomenon as “kufta” has accompanied all the great campaigns of the conquerors. “Broken meat” was the name of this dish.
Meatballs, meatballs or meatballs have such a distant history that its trace is lost in the clouds of dust from under the hooves of history. Persia, China, India... All the time, meat was not considered a very cheap product, so poor people tried to ensure that not a single piece was wasted. There were no meat grinders then, so the meat was chopped. Anything possible. This is how “beats” or meatballs appeared, and after the invention of the manual meat grinder, meatballs or meatballs appeared. There are no special rules: any meat with any additional ingredients and any seasonings. That's all. There are no strict parameters even regarding the form, as well as regarding the side dish. Total fantasy!

Рецепт
1. Let's start with the minced meat: in a separate container, combine the minced meat itself, one chicken egg, all seasonings, potato starch and salt. Mix everything thoroughly.
2. Separately, cut the cheese into long, even slices and a couple of “dry” tomatoes. Like the “Slivka” variety. The name of this recipe comes from the name of these tomatoes and the use of heavy cream.
3. Select a beautiful shape and cut a little butter into the bottom.
4. Sift the flour into a separate plate and add another “Georgian” seasoning. I really love spicy food!
5.Now little cooking secrets. Meatballs need to be formed into a round shape using flour.
6. Then lightly fry in a frying pan on both sides and do not allow the juice to come out.
7. Next, laying in the mold. Plus cheese and tomatoes. I am sensitive to the number twelve and the concept of “dozen,” so there will be exactly twelve meatballs.
8. Drizzle with cream or “spun” milk. It won't be any worse.
9. In the oven for 20 minutes, temperature - 180 degrees, operating mode of two heaters and hot air. We don't need a cheese crust, but the creamy taste from butter, cream and cheese will be very useful.
10. While the meatballs are simmering, cut the Egyptian potatoes. It is very hard and ideal for deep frying. Cut into large slices and dry with paper towels.
11. Place the potatoes in well-heated oil, but on low heat.
12. Fry for about 10 minutes. The potatoes turn out wonderful and for some reason have a nutty taste. We take out the meatballs and prepare a beautiful presentation. If you have guests for example.
13. But you can do it simpler for yourself. But no less tasty!
14. Peace and goodness! Bon appetit!
