Tricks for boiling meatballs so they don't break.

Making meatballs that don't fall apart when boiling can be a challenge, but there are a few tricks that can help keep them intact. Here are some tips that you can try.

1. Choose the right material.

Use meat that has sufficient fat content to keep the meatballs chewy. A mixture of beef with a little lard usually gives good results. If possible, use fresh meat for better results.

2. Add binder.

Add a binder such as tapioca flour or sago flour to the meatball mixture. This helps provide a denser texture and helps prevent the meatballs from breaking apart when boiling.

3. Beat the mixture well.

Make sure to beat the meatball mixture long enough and thoroughly so that the ingredients are mixed well. This will help make the meatballs denser and less likely to fall apart when cooked.

4. Maintain the temperature of the dough.

Make sure the meatball mixture is cold enough when forming. Storing it in the refrigerator before boiling can help the dough become denser and less likely to break.

5. Don't boil for too long.

Meatballs that are boiled for too long tend to break. Boil the meatballs only until cooked, that is, when they float on the surface of the water. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes depending on the size of the meatballs.

By following these tips, you should be able to make meatballs that don't fall apart when boiled. However, keep in mind that the results can also be influenced by the quality of the ingredients and individual cooking techniques, so it may take a little experimentation to find the method that works best for you.
