description
Filanti Meatballs are a tasty second course particularly appreciated and requested by children. A second dish simple to prepare and with few ingredients, the meatballs are a second dish loved by all but in this case they are even tastier with the stringy Monte Veronese cheese filling.
preparation
step 1
Soak the slice of stale bread in water or milk. In a large dish, mix the minced meat with the egg, salt, pepper and chopped parsley, then add the bacon, and the slice of bread soaked and well wrung out
step 2
and continue to mix all the ingredients.
step 3
Cut the dough into balls, make a small hollow in the center and put a small piece of Monte Veronese Cheese, close it well so that the cheese does not come out while it is cooking.
step 4
Pass the meatballs in the breadcrumbs, and collect them all on a plate.
step 5
Put a large pan with oil on a low heat and fry the meatballs on both sides.
step 6
if you use a lot of oil, dry the meatballs by passing them on a sheet of absorbent paper. Serve the hot meatballs to get the stringy cheese, but I assure you that they are excellent even cold, perhaps for a picnic or simply for lunch in the office.
