2. Put the minced meat in a bowl, add onions and parsley, capers and egg. Knead everything. Season the meat dough well with cayenne pepper and salt. If necessary, knead in breadcrumbs until the mixture is malleable.
3. Shape 8 meatballs out of the dough with moistened hands. Heat the oil in a pan and place the meatballs in it. Fry for 7-10 minutes on each side.
4. In the meantime, clean, wash and slice the carrots. Heat the oil in a pot. Add the carrot slices, sprinkle with sugar and fry while stirring. Pour in the broth and season everything with salt and pepper. Cook the vegetables for 5 - 8 minutes.
