Critical Success Points

  • Soak the bread long enough for it to absorb the milk.
  • Do not overwork the meat to keep it tender.
  • Brown the meatballs before adding the sauce to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Simmer on low heat, covered, for even cooking.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil carefully to avoid splatters.
  • Ensure the meat reaches at least 71°C internally.
