Instructions

Step 1

Soak the breadcrumbs in a bowl with milk, finely chop half of the garlic cloves and transfer it to another bowl and add the minced meat, the egg, the grated nutmeg, the chopped parsley, the breadcrumbs that were soaked and a pinch of salt, mix and knead everything very well, until it forms a large ball of meat dough.

Step 2

We take small portions of dough and give them a rounded meatball shape. We pass them through flour and fry them in a pan with plenty of oil and set them aside.

Step 3

Chop the onion, leek and garlic finely, peel the tomato and grate it and sauté these vegetables in a pan with a drizzle of oil, add salt and fry everything over low heat. When they are poached, add the tomato and continue cooking until it is well reduced.

Step 4

We add a teaspoon of flour and cook it a little. Pour in the wine, a little broth and if necessary, add more broth, because it can thicken a lot and simmer it for about 10 minutes.
