   How to make meatballs with gravy and tomato paste in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Minced meat can be selected from any type of meat. It can be chicken, beef, turkey or, like me, pork meat. You can even take mixed minced meat from several types of meat.

2. Step 2:

   

   Peel the onion, rinse in cold water and finely chop. Place the prepared minced meat in a spacious bowl and add chopped onion and egg to it. To taste, sprinkle everything with salt and spices. As a spice, you can take ground pepper or dried aromatic herbs. Mix all the ingredients well together and beat them against the bottom of the bowl. Thanks to this, the stuffing will become denser and the finished products will not fall apart during cooking.

   With wet hands, make small balls of minced meat and roll them in flour.

   In a separate glass, mix the tomato paste with water, salt and spices.

   Pour a little vegetable oil into a hot frying pan and put the prepared meat balls. Fry them on high heat on all sides so that they are slightly browned.

   During the stewing, the meatballs can be turned over a couple of times so that they are soaked in tomato sauce more evenly. These meat meatballs with gravy are perfect for any side dish. Place on plates and serve. Bon appetit!
