After grinding the beef and pork in a meat grinder, add seasonings and a finely chopped small onion, egg, bulgur (without water), knead and be sure to beat it, throwing it 20-25 times into a bowl with high sides.

My husband left my mother-in-law a week ago for his mistress. My husband is 49 and she is 52. There are three children in the family, my husband is the eldest son, the middle child is 16, and the youngest is 7 years old. My mother-in-law’s remaining relatives died within a year, the last one to die was my father 4 months ago , there is no one left except her children and her husband. She is very depressed, their apartment is still on a mortgage like ours, she works for pennies, cries about how she can raise her children alone and about the fact that she has already lost everyone and my husband betrayed me and left. As I understand it, my father-in-law said that he wants true love. My mother-in-law is a very calm person, I’ve never heard a swear word from her and she never raises her voice, she doesn’t drink alcohol. Perhaps he has gray hair in his beard and a devil in his ribs and he became bored with her, he wanted passion. He didn’t always work a standardized schedule, maybe then he spent the night with this woman, and his mother-in-law thought that he was at work that night. As he packed his things, he didn’t call or text about the children. I feel very sorry for her, I don’t know how to help her.... Tell me how to act in this situation, has anyone come across this? And I want to console her and it seems like it’s not convenient to approach her with such a topic, since it’s already hard for her. My husband is loaded walks, she calls, cries to him and he begins to worry, his father has always been an authority for him, but now he doesn’t even answer his SMS, he’s probably too busy with his new passion. In general, it happens like this: you live with a person, you think that everything is fine, you have a shared old age and grandchildren ahead, and tomorrow you watch him pack his things in a suitcase and leave for another woman...

Good day to all. Girls, please tell me how to learn to save? My family consists of me and my son. We live with him at my parents' place. They pay for most of the food and utilities (we have a private house). My salary is very small - 13 thousand and 1 thousand alimony. With this thousand I pay for my child’s meals at school. Another 1,500 goes to milk and internet. Also about 500 rubles for phones for me and my son. The remaining 11 thousand is for everything else - groceries, clothes, shoes, household chemicals, travel. But how can you learn to distribute them correctly? I buy things for myself and my child in cheap stores. I also try to get products on sale. I can’t find another job, since only I can drop off and pick up my son, and the job is a couple of meters from home. Here's how to start saving? I'm asking for advice. Maybe someone lives the same way. Sorry if I wrote it chaotically.

Given: me, husband, 7-year-old son and 2-year-old youngest daughter.
My son periodically suffers from jealousy, I try to fight it.
But: when my son was sent to kindergarten (2 years old), I, being a stupid hen of 25 years old, inspired him that he should not fight.
There was a reason - he started fighting with his friend, our neighbor. Mom, being a good friend of mine, threatened me with complaints from the manager, etc.

I was scared. There was no serious fight, but it was the complaints that scared me.

Today's story: we are visiting friends, they also have an eldest boy of 9 years old, and suddenly we hear our son crying sobbingly, and a demand for the eldest to apologize!
By the way, my son goes to fight, I realized my mistake, I convince him to fight back.
But along the way, the son grew up to be a tear washer.
My husband has already pecked. How to fix the situation...

One head is good, but two (much) better. Therefore, I will ask for advice on what to do. At our work, the team consists of office workers and workers. Due to the specifics, we communicate with everyone, there are daily planning meetings. When I came to work, birthdays were not celebrated and they were not chipped in for them. They congratulated me with a bouquet of flowers (the boss knew and organized it) and gave me a small gift. In six months the boss has a birthday. We collected the amount in an envelope and flowers. Now there is another girl (from our office she is the third and last). I told the workers, everyone responded and collected money for the gift. And today I find out that on the same day one of the workers also visited. Those. We will congratulate him in front of him and give her an envelope. What should we do with it? Not congratulating is rude. Give a gift - and what’s worse for those who were not congratulated? In short, I've lost my mind) Moreover, the boss quit and it's up to me to solve this puzzle... Maybe from the outside I can see better what to do?

Almost every housewife knows the recipe for meatballs. The highlight of my recipe is a delicate creamy sauce, which gives the dish an unforgettable taste and is the best gravy for a side dish.

The recipe uses cream, you can replace it with milk or sour cream. The taste, of course, will change a little, but nothing catastrophic will happen. The family will be satisfied in any case.

To prepare meatballs in creamy tomato sauce, I used:

• 0.5 kg minced pork and beef;
• a handful of long grain rice;
• 1 chicken egg;
• 200g cream (fat content does not matter);
• 2 tbsp. tomato paste;
• salt pepper.

Preparation:

Boil the rice until cooked so that it is crumbly. Let cool. Remember that you need to cook rice in a 3:2 ratio of water and rice, do not open the lid during cooking.

Salt and pepper the minced meat, add the egg and boiled rice. The egg is necessary so that the meatballs do not crumble during cooking and keep their shape. My minced meat already contained onions. You can finely chop the onion and put it fresh in the minced meat, or fry it, or grind it together with the meat through a meat grinder.

Mix everything thoroughly until smooth. If desired, you can pre-soak the bun in milk and add the crumb soaked in milk to the minced meat.

Form the minced meat into meatballs of the same size (about 4 cm in diameter). Place in a mold or frying pan without a handle with high sides. Meatballs must be laid in one layer.

Pour the cream into a bowl, add salt and pepper, and add tomato paste.

Beat the creamy tomato sauce, mixing everything thoroughly.

First, pour the resulting sauce over each meatball, then fill the mold so that only a small part of the cutlets is visible on the surface. This is necessary so that the meatballs have a golden brown crust. If there is not enough sauce, add a little cold boiled water and mix well again.

Preheat the oven in advance. Bake the meatballs for 40 minutes at a temperature of 170-180 degrees.

It will most likely not be possible to prepare such a dish on the stove, since cream and sour cream begin to curdle when boiling. In addition, in this case, the meatballs will need to be constantly stirred, as a result of which they may lose their shape.

The dish is best served with mashed potatoes or cereal. When serving, garnish the meatballs with fresh vegetables and herbs.

I hope that you and your loved ones will like the recipe for meatballs in creamy tomato sauce. Enjoy your meal!

Meatballs with gravy are delicious balls of minced meat stewed in a thick, flavorful sauce. Don't confuse them with meatballs; there are several significant differences between them. Meatballs are most often prepared in larger sizes because they are a separate, complete meat dish, for example, for lunch. Meatballs are fried or stewed in a frying pan, and can also be baked in the oven with or without sauce. Meatballs are boiled in broth; they usually complement some dish, for example.

There is a wide variety of delicious meatballs, mostly differing in additional ingredients. You can add onions and carrots to the meatballs, you can put rice, meatballs with mushrooms or stuffed with vegetables that are wrapped in minced meat are delicious. Various sauces for meatballs can also be prepared and they will radically affect the taste. Well, the most important thing is that the meatballs themselves can be made from various types of meat. I don’t want to see meatballs, but meatballs in all the variety of preparations take the main prize.

Of course, I won’t be able to cover all the options, but I will share many delicious ones with you.

Meatballs with tomato sauce and sour cream

It seems to me right to start with simple and classic recipes. They are usually the most sought after and popular. We have become so accustomed to meatballs since childhood that we very often look for recipes for their preparation that are very similar to those prepared by our mothers and grandmothers, as well as hardworking cooks in kindergarten. And all this is not just like that. By the way, let me clarify that meatballs can be prepared for children and they really like them, both in taste and in shape, and I don’t need to tell you how many kids love gravy. You can choose any side dish according to your taste, but now let's learn how to cook delicious meatballs with gravy.

For the meatballs you will need:

• minced meat - kg,
• egg - 1 piece,
• onions - 1-2 pcs,
• garlic - 1-2 pcs,
• sour cream - 4 tablespoons,
• flour - 2 tablespoons,
• salt, pepper and spices to taste.

Preparation:

1. For meatballs, you can use either ready-made minced meat or make it yourself from the chosen meat. Choose pork, beef or a mixture of two minced meats to suit your taste. My one piece of advice is not to make the minced meat too lean, that is, completely without fat. A little fat in the minced meat will make the meatballs more juicy, and at the same time it will practically melt during heat treatment.

2. Chop the onion smaller, especially if you are cooking for children. Adjust the quantity yourself; you can add one or two onions. The onion itself also helps make the meatballs softer and juicier. Combine onion and minced meat in a large, comfortable bowl. Grind the garlic on a grater or with a knife, and also add it to the minced meat.

3. Break one raw egg into a bowl with minced meat and stir. The egg will help ensure good stickiness of the minced meat so that future meatballs do not fall apart when finished. Salt and pepper the minced meat to your taste.

4. Form the resulting minced meat into even, medium-sized balls. Roll them in flour so that when frying you get a delicious golden brown crust and all the meat juices are sealed inside. Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil and fry the meatballs over medium heat on all sides until lightly browned.

5. Prepare the future gravy. This recipe is the simplest - mix tomato paste with sour cream, dilute with one glass of warm water.

6. Pour the resulting sauce over the meatballs in the frying pan, cover with a lid and simmer for fifteen minutes.

7. As it simmers, the gravy will take on a deeper red color thanks to the tomato sauce. After fifteen minutes, covered over medium heat, the meatballs will be ready and soaked in a delicious sauce.

Delicious meatballs with gravy are ready. The most universal and simplest recipe. If you put cream instead of sour cream, the taste will be more delicate and less sour. Serve with a hot side dish, such as mashed potatoes, sprinkle with fresh herbs. Bon appetit!

Tender meatballs with rice baked in gravy in the oven

Almost all of us have tried meatballs with rice, and many even know them under the name “Hedgehogs”. They can also be cooked in a frying pan in a thick gravy, or you can bake them in the oven, which will only make them more tender, because there will be no drying frying in the frying pan, but only uniform heat on all sides. To flavor the gravy, we will add onions and carrots to it.

You will need:

• mixed minced meat - 600 grams,
• boiled rice - 1 cup,
• egg - 1 piece,
• onions - 2 pcs,
• carrots - 1 piece,
• garlic - 2 cloves,
• tomato paste - 2 tablespoons,
• sour cream - 2 tablespoons,
• flour - 2 tablespoons,
• salt and black pepper to taste.

Preparation:

1. Scroll the meat through a meat grinder or take ready-made minced meat. Place it in a bowl and add finely chopped onion and garlic. We will need the second onion for gravy. Also break an egg into the minced meat. Add some salt and pepper. Stir the minced meat first with a spoon and then with your hands, this is how it mixes best.

2. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

3. Mix sour cream and tomato paste in a separate bowl. Add two tablespoons of flour to them and stir to a smooth paste.

4. Pour cold boiled water into a glass and gradually pour it into the future sauce in a bowl. Pour a little and stir, then add more water and stir, and so on until all the water is gone.

Flour is needed in this sauce to add thickness. It also gives off that same characteristic taste that we remember from childhood in the gravy that was served in the canteen of kindergartens and schools.

5. Heat a frying pan with oil. Cut the second onion into small cubes. Fry the onion in oil until translucent, then add the grated carrots to the pan and fry over medium heat until the carrots soften.

6. Now pour the prepared tomato-sour cream sauce into the frying pan with onions and carrots. Stir, add a little salt and let simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Salt and pepper the future gravy to your taste. This is how salty it will be when finished.

7. Turn on the oven to preheat at 180 degrees. Take a baking dish and start forming the meatballs. To do this, lightly moisten your hands with water and roll the minced meat into fairly large balls. Place the finished meatballs in the mold. When everything is assembled, take a frying pan with gravy and pour the meatballs on top. If there is not enough sauce, add a little water; it will mix with the sauce while boiling in the oven.

8. Place the meatballs with gravy in the oven and bake them for about 30 minutes at 180 degrees.

After half an hour, the meatballs are ready. The far cooks very quickly, and we already had the rice ready. You will get very tender and tasty meatballs with a fragrant thick gravy with onions and carrots. This is a very nutritious and satisfying lunch or dinner. Choose a side dish at your discretion. Eat for your health!

How to cook meatballs with gravy like in kindergarten

For those who are inexorably drawn by nostalgia to remember that same taste and cook meatballs like in kindergarten, I offer this good and detailed video. It describes the process of making meatballs and all the ingredients needed for this. There is nothing complicated in such a recipe and the cooks did not keep a military secret with it. Now it will be available to you too. Prepare the meatballs and don’t forget the tender pasta.

Meatballs in cream sauce, baked with cheese

Meatballs with rice are not the only thing that is great with tomato sauce. The creamy sauce is no less wonderful, and if you add cheese to it, then you won’t be able to pull it off by the ears. I can say this for myself and my family, but I’m almost sure that many will agree with me.

Cream is a delicate matter, so we will also bake meatballs in this sauce.

You will need:

• minced meat - 600 grams,
• rice - 100 grams,
• cream 10% - 330 ml,
• cheese - 100 grams,
• garlic - 2 cloves,
• potato starch - 1 teaspoon,
• salt and spices to taste.

Preparation:

1. Prepare minced meat, place it in a container convenient for stirring. Add garlic to the minced meat, passed through a press or grated on a fine grater. Add salt (about 0.5 teaspoon).

2. Boil the rice until half cooked. Add it to the minced meat. Add 0.5-1 teaspoon of your favorite mild spices. For example, Provençal or Italian herbs work very well.

3. Stir the minced meat with your hands, it turns out more evenly than with a spoon or spatula due to the fact that the minced meat is quite thick and lumpy.

4. Lightly moisten your hands with water and roll into large round meatballs. Take a comfortable deep baking dish and place future meatballs on the bottom. It is not necessary to spread butter, because we will cook them in sauce.

5. Stir the sauce in a separate bowl. To do this, pour cream into a bowl. Grate the cheese on a fine or coarse grater. Add cheese to the cream, as well as spices and salt to taste. Add a teaspoon of potato starch there, this is necessary to make the creamy sauce a little thicker. Starch will not affect the taste at all. Mix everything well.

6. Heat the oven to 180 degrees. Place the meatballs in the pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, during which time the meatballs will be half cooked.

7. Pour the gravy we prepared over the meatballs. Place the remaining cheese at the bottom (it will settle) on top of each meatball so that it bakes with a beautiful golden brown crust.

8. Place the meatballs and gravy back in the oven and bake for another 20-25 minutes. The sauce will reduce and the cheese will bake into a beautiful crust. The meatballs will be completely ready.

Serve hot meatballs in creamy sauce with side dishes and vegetable salads. Bon appetit!
