Recipe 2: semolina beats like in kindergarten

Prepare semolina as in kindergarten and serve them with jelly or condensed milk, jam - and you won't have to persuade anyone to eat another piece, the meatballs will be eaten with gusto and they will ask for more additives! The whole secret of a magical transformation in an appetizing golden brown, which is obtained by roasting the meatballs. And they can also be breaded in breadcrumbs - the crust will become even denser and in contrast to the tender, soft semolina will be delicious!

The basis of the meatballs is a steep semolina porridge. You need to cook it very thick, much thicker than you usually cook. The porridge should be such, about which they say “so that the spoon stands,” otherwise the meatballs will blur during frying and you will get semolina cakes. Sometimes raisins or other dried fruits are added to the semolina, so if the meatballs are to your taste, it is very easy to diversify them.

  • milk of any fat content - 0.5 liters;
  • semolina - 0.5 cups;
  • large egg - 1 pc;
  • sugar - 3 tbsp. l (to taste);
  • salt - a pinch;
  • flour for breading meatballs - 2-3 tbsp. l;
  • vegetable oil - 4 tbsp. l.

Bring the milk to a boil over low heat. As soon as the foam begins to appear on the surface, stir the milk with a spoon so that it starts to move, and a small funnel turns out in the center. Continuously stirring, pour in a thin stream semolina... Reduce the fire under the pan to the minimum before adding semolina.

Stirring constantly, cook the semolina until all the cereals swell and the porridge begins to thicken. Add sugar and salt. Put sugar to taste, perhaps you want to make the meatballs sweeter, or vice versa - make them savory and serve with jam or condensed milk.

We continue to cook the semolina for 5-7 minutes, until it thickens. The porridge should be steep so that it can easily move away from the sides of the pan while stirring.

We transfer the finished semolina to a bowl or leave it in a saucepan and cool until warm. We drive the egg into warm porridge.

Mix vigorously in a circular motion. At first, the semolina will be lumps, but as it mixes, it becomes smooth, the egg will fully combine with the porridge.

On a quiet fire, put a frying pan with vegetable oil... Pour flour into a plate. Wet hands under cold water, we collect a tablespoon of semolina and form a round blank. Put on flour, press down to make a plump cake. Dip in flour and transfer to a frying pan.

Fry the semolina meatballs for three to five minutes on each side, until an even brown crust appears.

Serve the semolina pieces warm, hot or cool until room temperature... We choose additives to your taste: berry jelly, condensed milk, jam, berries mashed with sugar. Bon Appetit!

Recipe 3, step by step: semolina meatballs

  • Semolina 125 g
  • Hard cheese 50 g
  • Egg 1 pc.
  • Vegetable broth 250 ml
  • Ground paprika 0.5 tsp
  • Vegetable oil 1 tbsp. l.
  • Salt To taste
  • Pepper To taste

The taste of the meatballs will directly depend on the quality of the semolina: how to make the semolina meatballs tasty if the cereals are old and moldy? Right, no way. Remember - semolina should be light yellowish, without visible lumps. If the cereal sticks together, it means that it is damp, and this will not lead to anything good, except for the appearance of bitterness or acid.

You can, in principle, take any cheese: some recipes even contain Parmesan (it's not for nothing that the French love meatballs). But the usual "Dutch" or "Russian" will be no worse.

Vegetable broth is better, of course, to cook yourself from fresh vegetables, but in the case of a total lack of time or desire, it is quite possible to get by with a bouillon cube.

Bring the vegetable stock in a saucepan to a boil. Stir constantly, add semolina into the broth, and, without stopping stirring, bring to a boil again.

After that, reduce the heat to low and, stirring calmly, cook the porridge for 2 minutes. Then remove from heat and leave to cool for 10 minutes.

When the semolina has cooled down a little, beat in an egg, add grated cheese, paprika, salt and pepper, and mix well.

On work surface(for this, the best fit cutting board moistened with water) form a sausage from the resulting mass and send it to the refrigerator for 10 minutes for final cooling.

Cut the cooled semolina sausage into 12 pieces and form the meatballs in the form of small round cutlets.

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the meatballs for 2-3 minutes on each side until tender.

Semolina balls - general principles cooking

Thickly boiled, fluffy semolina is the basis for any kind of such meatballs. Basically, it is cooked in milk, adding sugar and adding salt according to the recipe. Before you start preparing the base, you should decide what type of meatballs you will cook. In unsweetened ones - granulated sugar is not added.

How to properly prepare a thick semolina for meatballs without lumps? Measure immediately into a dry glass required amount decoys. Take any unenamelled saucepan, pour milk or water into it. At this stage, you do not need to add anything to the liquid - sugar and salt are put in the process of boiling, in an already well-heated base. As soon as the liquid begins to boil, begin to stir it intensively in a circle, and with the other hand at this time slowly, in a thin stream, pour in the cereal. Without stopping stirring, let the porridge boil for three minutes, until it thickens. Cool the finished semolina.

If you need to add oil, do it about ten minutes after it is ready. Eggs and additional components - poppy seeds, flour, dried fruits, cheese, cottage cheese and others, are introduced only into a completely cooled base.

Shapes are formed with hands well moistened with water. The shape can be different, the recommended thickness is no more than one and a half centimeters, otherwise it will be difficult to fry them in a pan. Baked or steamed semolina balls in the form of balls will look original.

Before frying or baking, the meatballs are breaded in flour, breadcrumbs or in dry semolina. If you roll the bread in breadcrumbs before steaming, its layer will soften, which will negatively affect not only appearance but also the taste.

Semolina meatballs are served immediately after readiness. Unsweetened with sour cream, sauces, melted heavy cream or butter. Sweet - with honey, sweetened sour cream, jam, sweet syrups and sauces.

Semolina Meatballs - Cooking Tricks and Tips

To make the semolina base thick, you must strictly observe the proportions of cereal and liquid. If for cooking ordinary porridge it is enough to take six full tablespoons of semolina per liter of milk, in our case this amount is calculated for only half a liter. Please note that you need to take more cereals for cooking in water.

To avoid lumps, add cereals directly when boiling, and not into an already boiling liquid. Use a whisk instead of a spoon for vigorous stirring.

Shake the egg with a fork before introducing it. Pour in small portions, stirring thoroughly each time. This will adjust the thickness of the semolina base.

If the porridge turns out to be too thick or with lumps, interrupt it with a blender. Such a procedure will help correct imperfections and make the beats more tender.

Sweet semolina meatballs can be supplemented with raisins, nuts, candied fruits, pieces of fresh and even canned fruits, berries. Savory - in slices boiled vegetables, pieces of sausage, ham or boiled meat, greens.

Unsweetened semolina meatballs will have a more delicate consistency if you add a little grated boiled vegetables to the semolina base. For sweets, cottage cheese can be such an addition.

Prepare semolina meatballs like in kindergarten and serve them with jelly or condensed milk, jam - and you won't have to persuade anyone to eat another piece, the meatballs will be eaten with gusto and they will ask for more additives! The whole secret of a magical transformation is in an appetizing golden brown crust, which is obtained when roasting meatballs. And they can also be breaded in breadcrumbs - the crust will become even denser and, in contrast to the tender, soft semolina, it will be very tasty!
The basis of the meatballs is a steep semolina porridge. You need to cook it very thick, much thicker than you usually cook. The porridge should be such, about which they say “so that the spoon stands,” otherwise the meatballs will blur during frying and you will get semolina cakes. Sometimes raisins or other dried fruits are added to the semolina, so if the meatballs are to your taste, it is very easy to diversify them.

Ingredients:


- milk of any fat content - 0.5 liters;
- semolina - 0.5 cups;
- large egg - 1 piece;
- sugar - 3 tbsp. l (to taste);
- salt - a pinch;
- flour for breading meatballs - 2-3 tbsp. l;
- vegetable oil - 4 tbsp. l.

Recipe with photo step by step:




Bring the milk to a boil over low heat. As soon as the foam begins to appear on the surface, stir the milk with a spoon so that it starts to move, and a small funnel turns out in the center. Without stopping stirring, add semolina in a thin stream. Reduce the fire under the pan to the minimum before adding semolina.





Stirring constantly, cook the semolina until all the cereals swell and the porridge begins to thicken. Add sugar and salt. Put sugar to taste, perhaps you want to make the meatballs sweeter, or vice versa - make them savory and serve with jam or condensed milk.





We continue to cook the semolina for 5-7 minutes, until it thickens. The porridge should be steep so that it can easily move away from the sides of the pan while stirring.





We transfer the finished semolina to a bowl or leave it in a saucepan and cool until warm. We drive the egg into warm porridge.







Mix vigorously in a circular motion. At first, the semolina will be lumps, but as it mixes, it becomes smooth, the egg will fully combine with the porridge.





Put a frying pan with vegetable oil on a quiet fire. Pour flour into a plate. We moisten our hands under cold water, collect a tablespoon of semolina and form a round blank. Put on flour, press down to make a plump cake. Dip in flour and transfer to a frying pan.





Fry the semolina meatballs for three to five minutes on each side, until an even brown crust appears.





Serve semolina balls warm, hot or cool to room temperature. We choose additives to your taste: berry jelly, condensed milk, jam, berries grated with sugar. Bon Appetit!
