Next, you need to form meatballs "as in kindergarten." The recipe does not require a large number of ingredients. Roll round balls in flour and fry them on each side in a pan, to which we add vegetable oil.

After that, transfer them to the pan and fill with water to half to which we add salt. Stew meatballs until cooked. In a separate pan, fry the flour, but not for very long.
