Brilio.net - Making meatballs can use various types of basic ingredients with beef as one of the main choices. The parts of beef that can be used are quite diverse, ranging from shank to tenderloin. Veined beef can also be used as a basic ingredient for making meatballs.
The variation of meatballs has now developed with the presence of various interesting fillings. One popular innovation is meatballs filled with whole eggs that are larger than regular meatballs. The combination of beef and eggs in one meatball creates a special taste.
Making meatballs filled with eggs can actually be done independently at home, although it requires special techniques. An improper process can result in the appearance of the meatballs being untidy, with the egg skin visible from the outside. A tutorial on making meatballs filled with eggs is shown by the YouTube channel @Johan Bakso, as quoted by BrilioFood on Monday (11/11). The video shows the process of putting eggs into the meatball mixture is not as complicated as imagined.
The method shared by this netizen also seems different from the others. Instead of frying the eggs first before being put into the meatball mixture, you don't need to do that.

The method is to prepare the meatball mixture consisting of a mixture of meat, tapioca flour, and various spices. Set aside the meatball mixture and don't forget to prepare a pan filled with water. Then turn on the stove on low heat and boil the water in the pan.

Now, for the egg filling, it is not fried, but needs to be boiled first. Eggs that have been boiled do not need to be fried again. You only need to drain the boiled eggs until the entire surface is completely dry, so that later they can stick to the meatball mixture perfectly. Then shape the meatball mixture using the palm of your hand.

Then put the drained egg into the meatball mixture. Press or push the center of the egg until it enters the mixture. After that, tidy up the surface of the meatball using a spoon. Do it slowly so that the egg filling does not break. If the shape is right, you can immediately put it into a pan filled with water.
Cook the meatballs by boiling them until they are cooked. Wait until they float, then the meatballs can be strained, and served with accompaniments such as noodles and broth. How, is it easy enough to make meatballs filled with eggs?
