For the sauce:

  • 1 tea glass of olive oil
  • Red pepper flakes

Preparation

  1. Knead your ground meat and liver, which has been ground twice, with two spoons of salt the day before. The reason for doing it the day before is so that our meatballs don’t fall apart and are firmer.
  2. The next day, let’s pass the onions and peppers through a food processor and put the minced meat in a kneading bowl. We take the sweet basil, mint, peppers, spices, half a glass of semolina, 1 kg bulgur and knead it by wetting our hands with water until it becomes a paste.
  3. Separate small pieces, roll them in our hands, press lightly on it and press the center with your pinky finger. This process continues until the dough is finished.
  4. Pour boiled water into your pot, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and add the meatballs to the boiling water. Leave it to boil for about 20 minutes.
  5. After the meatballs are cooked, drain the water and put them into the plates. In another pot, heat the butter, oil, and red pepper flakes and pour it, we make it ready for service, bon appetit.

Hot “Dog” Casserole

Prep time: 50 minutes

Serves 6-8  people

Preparation

Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and bake, uncovered, for 18-20 minutes or until heated through and the cheese has melted and browned (If you prepare this in advance, wait to add the remaining cheese until you are ready to bake the casserole the next day). Preheat the oven to 350 F degrees. Grease a 2-quart casserole. Add the freshly cooked and drained macaroni into the casserole along with the sliced hot dogs and just 2 cups of the cheese; mix well. Combine butter and onion in a medium saucepan and saute over medium heat until the onion is wilted (about 5 minutes). Whisk flour into the butter mixture quickly until flour is absorbed, then remove from heat. Add milk slowly, whisking to combine well- make sure you whisk very quickly and thoroughly or you will have doughy clumps. Return to heat, whisk in the salt and pepper, and bring to a boil (still whisking)- just be careful not to let it burn. As soon as it starts to hit the boiling point, remove from heat and pour evenly over the macaroni mixture. Stir to gently to combine.
