Meatballs stuffed with mozzarella in sweet and sour sauce
Amazing meatballs in a rich sweet and sour sauce. Mozzarella gives the dish a special taste; for the recipe, I took 17 small balls (7 g each). Each meatball required 30 g of minced meat. Rice would be a great side dish. This quantity of ingredients is calculated for 5-6 servings.
