29.06.2020 Desserts and cakes

Good afternoon, dear hostesses!
Yesterday I spoiled my family with meat hedgehogs so beloved by everyone. They are stewed in a frying pan for about forty minutes, so the pleasure is quite quick to prepare and very quick to eat.
I cook these hedgehogs with Maggi seasoning for the second, which can be purchased at any grocery store. The bag of spices is divided into two sections: in one is a mixture of herbs to add to the minced meat, in the other for the sauce with which we will fill our meatballs.
So, in a bowl we put half a kilo of minced pork,

add chopped medium onion and grated carrots on a coarse grater to it. Rice in the amount of 70 grams (which is 6 tablespoons), pour 100 ml of boiling water (0.5 cups) and let it brew for 10 minutes.


Next, mix the minced meat, vegetables and slightly swollen rice (do not drain the water from it!) And add a mixture of herbs from the "For minced meat" compartment.


Once again, mix everything well and begin to roll hedgehog balls. I usually get 10-12 small meatballs.


We spread it on a deep hot frying pan and leave it on low heat for a couple of minutes while preparing the sauce.


Pour 400 ml of cold water into the dishes, add 3 tbsp. spoons of sour cream and a mixture of herbs from the compartment "FOR sauce", mix well and fill our hedgehogs.


Close the pan with a lid, make medium moderate heat and simmer for about 40-50 minutes.


Next, we take out our meat balls, pour them with sauce (there will still be plenty of it in the pan) and sprinkle with herbs.
Due to the content of rice with a side dish in the dish, you can not rack your brains, but our youngest asks us to always cook potatoes for hedgehogs.


Enjoy your meal!

Time for preparing: PT00H50M 50 min.

Approximate cost per serving: 150 rub.

Everyone in our family loves hedgehogs. I cooked them according to different recipes, but still the most beloved ones remain just hedgehogs with sour cream filling. I didn’t get bored a bit, because when I saw Maggi for hedgehogs, I snagged a bag home. I think it will taste a little different. However, there was a fear that the children would not eat.

Maggi on the second for hedgehogs.

The bag is divided into two parts. In one part for seasoning sauce, in the other for minced meat.

Here's what we needed to prepare.

MAGGI® For the second for meat hedgehogs with rice and carrots - 1 pc., minced meat - 500g, uncooked rice - 70g, carrots - 2 pcs., onion - 1 pc., sour cream - 3 tbsp.

I took more rice - 110 gr came out, 1 multi-glass. I am not friendly with a frying pan, so my hedgehogs will cook in a slow cooker.

There is a recipe on the back of the bag, according to which these hedgehogs should be cooked.

1. Soak rice (70 g) in half a glass of hot water (~ 100 ml) and leave for 10 minutes. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater, finely chop the onion.

Mix the minced meat (500 g), vegetables and rice, without draining the water from the rice, with the contents of the sachet from the minced meat compartment.

2. Form 10 round hedgehogs and place them in a deep preheated pan, pre-greased with vegetable oil.

3. Mix sour cream with 400 ml of cold water, add the contents of the sachet from the SAUCE compartment, mix thoroughly. Pour the sauce into the skillet.

4. Stew the hedgehogs under the lid over low heat for 40 minutes. Depending on the type of rice, the cooking time may increase up to 50 minutes.


The composition of Maggi seasoning is all natural.

Iodized salt (salt, potassium iodate), dried vegetables (18.7%) (tomato (powder), garlic, carrot (0.9%), onion), sugar, wheat flour (contains gluten), corn starch, sugar, spices and herbs (6.7) (cumin, black pepper, basil, bay leaf, dill, parsley, nutmeg, turmeric, curry), sunflower oil (2.3%), acidity regulator (citric acid). The product may contain trace amounts of milk, celery.


So, follow the instructions on the package ... According to her, three two carrots, cut the onion, pour rice with boiling water.


I was in such a hurry that I didn’t take a picture of the seasoning from the first compartment. But it looks like suneli hops or Provence herbs... Very fragrant mixture of herbs, pleasant smell. I really liked the scent. I sniffed the empty bag for a long time.

I was also in such a hurry that I drained the water from the rice. I read the recipe on the pack well and added new water to the minced meat, as Maggi wrote.

I formed hedgehogs and put them in a slow cooker. Well, I did the sauce.


There is much more seasoning for the sauce than for minced meat, since there is also starch. The whole bank of sour cream left me. The seasoning is also very aromatic for the sauce.

I poured all the hedgehogs with sauce and into the slow cooker for 1 hour to stew. After 30 minutes, the aroma of hedgehogs began to attract children.

On a signal, they got our dinner with Maggie ...


There is actually a lot of sauce and it is very tasty and thick. At first, I just didn't post it all.

Hedgehogs came out very tasty, very fragrant, very tender. Melted in your mouth. That's who makes Maggi's recipes for the second ??? some super chef! I would never have thought to add water to the stuffing! As much as 100 ml! And I think that's what makes them so soft. And the sauce is thick, of good consistency thanks to the starch that the manufacturer added to the herbal mixture. And how the herbs are selected ... mmm ... the aroma is indescribable !!! BUT the hedgehogs were appreciated by my husband and I and the youngest daughter, the eldest tried and preferred empty fish in flour with salt ... She is not a fan of spicy herbs at all ((.

In general, I was very satisfied with the result. The three of us ate all the hedgehogs. The husband almost ate a bowl of the multicooker at the same time, while collecting all the sauce from it with a special spoon. I will definitely buy more!

Do you cook meat hedgehogs from Maggi? I'm here - very regularly and today we will cook them together

In fact, I always have such mixtures of rights in my kitchen. I fry barbecue wings or legs with garlic, and also make goulash or buckwheat in a merchant's way with these ready-made sets. and while alive and well. Personally, for me, this not only saves time, but also helps not very knowledgeable housewives.

Meat Hedgehog Mix with Rice and Carrots by Maggi. I no longer remember the exact price, but in general it is sold for 45 rubles on discounts.

It is a package with two compartments, where the mixtures for minced meat and sauce are collected. Also on the package there is all the necessary information - calorie content, composition, step-by-step cooking instructions and a description of the desired products. Since this is not the first time I have been making these hedgehogs, for myself I am already deviating from the manufacturer's instructions. For example, I cannot say what exact amount of minced meat I take, I think that it is more than indicated. And I prefer to use one medium carrot and one small onion.



Advice Chop the onion as finely as possible, otherwise these "construction logs" will interfere with you and even fall out of the minced meat during kneading.

So, we have prepared grated carrots, finely chopped onions and minced meat. I take about three tablespoons of rice without a slide and pour hot water - as indicated in the instructions - for ten minutes or less.


By the way, I once heard from a former colleague a contemptuous type of "fu, hedgehogs, one rice, no meat." Well .... I can say that it depends on how you cook. Do you seriously think that three tablespoons of rice for half a kilo of minced meat is so much?? I don’t know what recipe she was fed with these hedgehogs, but in my case, my husband is tasting and he doesn’t complain about anything.

We take 400 ml of water, add 3 tablespoons (already with a slide) of sour cream there and pour the contents from the package "for sauce". All this needs to be mixed.


Pour spices "for minced meat", carrots, onions and rice together with water into a bowl with minced meat. I personally add a little more spices for minced meat, I just have minced meat a little more than 500 g, so ... Then everything is thoroughly mixed


We can say that all the main work is ready. Then you need to blind the hedgehogs and place them on the fire in a deep frying pan. The instructions say about 10 hedgehogs, but I do everything by eye and it comes out differently. Now, as we can see, twelve came out. Then pour all the talker under the sauce and you're done. Now all this should be stewed for about 30 minutes, and you just stir occasionally. I interfere 10 times for sure.


The dish is ready!

I prefer to serve with potatoes, but sometimes it was also with buckwheat ... and with peas ... here it’s the tenth thing. Hedgehogs during the cooking process decrease in size and watering is obtained a lot, when serving, you can not save.


I have no complaints about this product and give it a well-deserved five stars.

Oh yes, "harmful composition"


I have everything, bon appetit everyone.
