Bakso is one of favorite food in Indonesia.... I like to eat meat ball with the spicy taste. mmmm Yummy

Ingredients:

    1 kg minced flank beef

    7 cloves of garlic (sliced and fried)
    1 tsp fried onion

    salt and pepper
    200ml very cold water

How to:

•  In a food processor, put minced beef, garlic, fried onion, egg, salt and pepper. Blitz until pale pink (it has to be smooth, like a very thick paste). Transfer to a bowl.
•  Do the same with chicken breast. Roughly cut the chicken breast, put in a food processor and blitz until nice and smooth. Put in the bowl with the beef in it.
• Add in flour and water. Mix well.
• Boil water in a pot and add a pinch of salt. When its boiling, reduce the heat, so it’ll be only simmer.

 The method will always be the same, this is how we make bakso.

Wait until they float, it means they ready and cooked. Take them out. Done.
At this stage, you can freeze some of them. Good for stir fry, noodles, etc.
And don’t throw the water, it contains good flavour from the beef, we’ll use it for the broth.
