Meatballs with Surprise

Preparation: Start by placing the ground meat in a large bowl. Add the 2-3 raw eggs, ensuring they are fresh, to give the mixture a pleasant texture. Follow with a tablespoon of sweet paprika, which will add a special flavor, and then add the 3 crushed garlic cloves, which will intensify the taste. Don’t forget the salt and pepper, which should be added to taste, to personalize the flavor of your meatballs.

In another bowl, take the two slices of bread and soak them in cold water for a few minutes to soften. After they have soaked, squeeze out the excess water and add them to the meat mixture. It is important to knead the meat dough well so that all the ingredients are perfectly combined and the flavors blend.

Meanwhile, put 4-5 eggs to boil. By letting them boil for about 10-12 minutes, you will get hard-boiled eggs, ideal for filling the meatballs. Once boiled, carefully peel them and cut them in half horizontally.

Now, take a portion of the meat mixture and spread it in your palm. Place half a boiled egg in the center of the dough and cover it with another portion of meat, thus forming well-shaped meatballs that hide the delicious surprise inside. Make sure the egg is completely covered with meat to avoid leaking during baking.

Place the stuffed meatballs in a baking dish or oven-safe dish that you have greased with a little oil to prevent sticking. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and let the meatballs bake until they become golden and appetizing, which may take between 30 and 40 minutes, depending on their size.

When they are ready, take them out of the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. These stuffed meatballs are delicious alongside creamy mashed potatoes, which will perfectly complement the meal. Enjoy your meal!
