Potato and chicken meatballs

Ingredients

Salad Potatoes - 6 pieces

Milk - 3 fl oz
Salt - 0.2 oz
Chicken Broth - 17 fl oz
Herbs - 0.4 oz
Chicken Egg - 1 piece

Step by Step guide

Step 1

First, prepare the potatoes: peel them, grate them on a fine grater (I cut the potatoes into small pieces and blended them). Then, you need to squeeze out the starch and all the water (this can be done in two ways, either through cheesecloth or a sieve), then add the egg, flour, salt, 50 ml of milk, and mix well. The potato mixture should resemble thick sour cream.

Step 2

Also, season the ground chicken with salt and add 50 ml of milk, mixing well. Place a tablespoon of the potato mixture in your palm, make a well in the center, then place the meat inside and wrap it into a ball. It is advisable to rinse the potato off your hands with cold water during the process, as this makes it easier and prevents the potato from sticking to your hands, allowing the ball to hold together better. Drop the balls into boiling broth and cook until they float.

Step 3

Serve the finished meatballs with chicken broth and a spoonful of sour cream, and add herbs to taste. Instead of herbs, you can add finely chopped sautéed garlic.
