- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon White pepper

- 300 g Noodles(Such as rice vermicelli, egg noodles, or glass noodles (bihun), prepared according to package directions.)

👨🍳 Fremgangsmåte
- 1
Prepare the Meatball Mixture: In a food processor, combine the ground beef, minced garlic, salt, and white pepper. Pulse until the mixture is finely minced. With the processor running, gradually add the ice cubes, a few at a time, until the mixture becomes a smooth, sticky paste. This process should take about 5-7 minutes. The cold temperature and smooth texture are essential for bouncy meatballs.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 2
Incorporate Tapioca Flour: Add the tapioca flour to the food processor with the beef mixture. Process until just combined and the mixture is homogenous. Be careful not to overmix at this stage. Transfer the mixture to a bowl.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Form the Meatballs: Lightly wet your hands with cold water to prevent sticking. Scoop about 1-2 tablespoons of the meat mixture and roll it between your palms to form smooth, round balls. Alternatively, you can use two spoons to shape them.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Cook the Meatballs: Bring the beef broth to a gentle simmer in a large pot over medium heat. Do not boil vigorously. Carefully drop the formed meatballs into the simmering broth. Cook until the meatballs float to the surface and are cooked through, approximately 8-10 minutes. They should feel firm to the touch. Remove the cooked meatballs with a slotted spoon and set aside.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 5
Prepare Noodles and Broth: While the meatballs are cooking, prepare your chosen noodles according to their package instructions. In a separate pot, reheat the beef broth if necessary, ensuring it's hot but not boiling. You can add a pinch of salt or a dash of soy sauce to the broth for extra flavor.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 6
Assemble and Serve: Divide the prepared noodles among serving bowls. Ladle the hot beef broth over the noodles. Add several cooked bakso meatballs to each bowl. Garnish generously with fried shallots and any optional garnishes like chopped scallions, cilantro, sambal, or kecap manis.

💡 Profesjonelle tips
- ✓Bruken av isvann eller knust is i kjøttbolleblandingen er avgjørende for å oppnå den karakteristiske spenstige og møre teksturen til bakso.
- ✓Ikke kok kjøttbollene kraftig; en forsiktig småkoking er nøkkelen til å forhindre at de går i stykker og sikre en jevn tekstur.
- ✓Avkjøling av kjøttbolleblandingen før forming gjør den mindre klissete og lettere å håndtere.
- ✓Smak til og juster krydringen av kraften før servering, da ferdigkjøpte kraftvarianter kan variere i saltinnhold.

- Tilsett finhakket koriander eller en klype muskatnøtt i kjøttbolleblandingen for et ekstra smakslag.
- Inkluder andre proteiner som malt svinekjøtt eller fisk i kjøttbolleblandingen for ulike smaksprofiler.
