Sour cream sauce is perfect for stewing meatballs with rice: it is tender and has a delicate sourness, which successfully emphasizes the rich meat taste. There is one more nuance that allows you to enhance the taste of meat, to make it more intense and expressive in ready-made "hedgehogs" - this is preliminary rolling of meatballs in flour and their subsequent quick roasting. The flour shell seals the meat juices inside each "hedgehog" and forms a crust with a rich taste on the surface. This "breading" note is noticeably felt in the finished dish and decorates it very much.
Ingredients
Cooking process
We wash the rice thoroughly. We place the grits in a saucepan, fill with water in such an amount to completely cover it and bring to a boil on the stove. From the moment it boils, we cook the rice for ten minutes, after which we put it in a colander, rinse it well with cold water and let it dry a little so as not to add excess moisture to the minced meat.
Heat a small amount of odorless vegetable oil in a frying pan. Pour flour into a shallow plate. We roll each ball of minced meat in flour and put in boiling oil. Fry them at a high temperature of the stove until a pronounced golden brown crust. Then we remove the semi-finished meatballs from the pan and temporarily place them on a plate. Peel the remaining onion and carrots, rinse and dry. Cut the onion into small cubes, grate the carrots.
We set the temperature of the plate to a minimum, level the vegetable layer in the pan and put the fried "hedgehogs" on top. Add sour cream to the pan and pour in water in such an amount that the meatballs are covered by 2/3 of their height. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper and close the lid. Simmer the dish at the lowest temperature for forty-five minutes.
Bon Appetit!
