Anelia's Kyufteta or Bulgarian Roasted Meatballs image

Once again one of my boyfriend's favourites. He never gets tired of these meatballs or of my cutlets and he often requests both at the same time. Grilling is also a nice option although you might want to put more beef or more bread so that the mixture gets thicker.

Yield 12-14 meatballs, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb pork, chopped (not too fatty)
1/4 lb ground beef
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup of crumbled bread (preferably at least a day old)
1 egg
black pepper, ground
white pepper, ground
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme (or as much fresh as you like)
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
salt

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients in a bowl and knead well.
  • Form the mixture into balls approximately 1’ in diameter and flatten them until ½’ thick.
  • Place the balls in a baking tin spread with a bit of oil or cooking spray and roast at medium or high heat 15 min or until golden brown.
  • Turn the meatballs over and roast another 5 min until golden brown on the other side too.
  • When ready immediately remove from tin and place on kitchen paper to absorb excess fat.
  • Serve hot.
