The benefits of cabbage are known to everyone. It contains a huge amount of fiber and a lot of vitamins. That is why dishes with it have been popular for a long time, and this is explained not only by their benefits, but also by their availability. Cabbage can be used of any variety, but most often white cabbage or cauliflower is used. These varieties are present on store shelves all year round, while retaining all vitamins and nutrients during storage. That is why there are so many great cabbage dishes in our kitchen. And one no less popular recipe is the meatballs, which will be discussed today.
It turns out that such a dish is more dietary than meatballs made only from meat. But if you want to make them very light and less greasy, then I recommend baking the dish in the oven, heating it to 180 ° C. To do this, put the cutlets on a baking sheet, previously covered with parchment paper or oiled with vegetable oil, and bake the food for about 20 minutes. In addition, if the meatballs need to be made vegetarian, then simply exclude the meat component from the components.
The meatballs are served as an independent dish or together with a vegetable salad or any side dish, for example, spaghetti, rice, mashed potatoes. When serving, sour cream, mustard, tomato, garlic or mushroom sauce are often used.
