The point is that the best option is rice that is half-cooked.

Let's start working with the meat. Put it and the onion in a meat grinder and grind until smooth. Add salt and the spices you need.

Add the egg and mix well. Then add the rice.

Afterwards, the cook advises to beat the minced meat.

Heat the frying pan. Fry until the crust appears. Mix the paste with water and pour into the pan. Then reduce the heat and cook for forty minutes.

When serving, you can use fresh herbs.
