    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the ground meat with the egg, breadcrumbs, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix all ingredients thoroughly, then shape into small meatballs.

    2

    Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the meatballs on all sides until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes, ensuring they are cooked through.

    3

    For the sauce, finely chop the onion and garlic. In a separate pan, sauté them in a little oil until translucent.

    4

    Add the tomato puree, Hungarian sweet paprika, and a splash of water to the sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it begins to thicken.

    5

    Pour the sauce over the cooked meatballs and simmer for another 10-15 minutes, allowing the meatballs to absorb the flavors of the sauce.

    6

    Serve the meatballs fresh, with cooked rice or crusty bread.
