Critical Success Points

  • Knead the meat well to obtain a homogeneous texture.
  • Coat each meatball with flour before cooking.
  • Brown the meatballs on all sides before braising.
  • Reduce the sauce before adding the meatballs to avoid a too‑liquid consistency.
  • Cook the wheat until tender but still firm (al dente).

Safety Warnings

  • Be careful of hot oil splatters when browning the meatballs.
  • Handle knives carefully while cutting vegetables.
