Kufte (kyufte)

Instructions

1. Soak the sandwich bread in the milk for 5 minutes, then squeeze out the excess.
2. Finely grate the onion and crush the garlic. Put them in a bowl with the meat, crumbled bread, egg, paprika, salt and pepper.
3. Knead for 3 minutes until smooth, then shape meatballs about 4 cm across, dampening your hands slightly.
4. Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat and brown the meatballs 3 to 4 minutes per side, turning them gently.
5. Finish cooking over low heat for 5 minutes, covered, so they are cooked through.
6. Serve hot with sautéed potatoes or a salad.
