Put the rice in boiling, salted water and cook for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
Dice the onion and fry in a pan together with half of the mince. Season with all of the specified spices. Then let it cool down. Mix the fried mince with the other half of the mince in a bowl. Season again and add the eggs. Mix in the rice. By using rice, neither breadcrumbs nor a bread roll can be added to the meat. Let the meat rest for an hour.
The mass is then used to form woman`s thighs (large and club-shaped). But since I find it easier to shape smaller meatballs and you can fry them much faster, I always shape flat, medium-sized meatballs. These are first turned in flour, dipped in egg yolk and then again in breadcrumbs. Fry in plenty of fat.
Tip:
Since the time required is quite large compared to other meatballs, I like to cook in advance and freeze part of the Kadinbudu Köfte. That works wonderfully.
