Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Thoroughly mix the ground pork, chopped onion, 1 egg, and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a baking sheet with butter and dust it with flour.
Shape the mixture into small meatballs and arrange them on the baking sheet. Use a spoon to press a hollow into each one.
Place the meatballs in the oven and bake briefly until they begin to set.
Mix the grated cheese with the sour cream and egg.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and spoon 1 teaspoon of cheese filling into each hollow.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes.

Tip: Shape the meatballs with damp hands and press the hollows with a teaspoon dipped in water. Leave the sides thick enough to keep the cheese filling from leaking onto the baking sheet.
