How to make

For the meatballs, grind the carrots, parsley, bread and garlic in a blender or food processor.

Transfer the mixture into a bowl and mix with the minced meat, breadcrumbs, egg, milk and spices.

From this mixture, form round meatballs the size of a walnut, by greasing your hands, so that they do not stick to you.

Roll each ball in flour and arrange them in a greased tray or cover it with baking paper.

Put it in an oven heated to 360°F (180°C) for 10 minutes, then turn each meatball and bake them for another 5-6 minutes.

For the sauce, finely chop the onion and garlic and stew them for 5-6 minutes in the olive oil.

Add the tomato paste and cook for another minute or two.

Pour the wine and leave it with the lid open, so that the alcohol can evaporate, then add the water, broth cube and season with salt and spices.

Leave it simmer for a few minutes, until it reduces a bit and cover the meatballs with the sauce.

Transfer them to a smaller baking pan.

Put it back in the oven for 15 minutes at the same temperature 360°F (180°C).

Sprinkle the finished dish with fresh, chopped parsley and serve it warm.

Enjoy your meal!
