Timp de preparare: 50 minute (pregatirea amestecului si gatitul)

Mod de preparare:

Intr-un bol mare, amestecati cu ajutorul unei spatule, carnea de vita cu cea de porc. Peste carne adaugati sarea, usturoiul dat prin presa, piperul, boia dulce, cimbru, coriandru, nucsoara, ienibahar si ceapa granulata. Separat intr-un bol mic, dizolvati bicarbonatul de sodiu in apa minerala. Lasati amestecul sa actioneze 10-15 secunde si dupa turnati-l peste amestecul de carne si condimente. Amestecati din nou totul foarte bine. Incepeti sa formati micii, care ar trebui sa aiba o lungime de aproximativ 10 cm si o grosime de 3 cm. Pentru a preveni lipirea, umeziti mainile cu apa rece. Cand ati terminat toti micii de format, acoperiti tava cu o folie de plastic. Dati tava la frigider pentru 4 ore sau cel mai bine peste noapte. Cand doriti sa ii gatiti, scoateti micii de la frigider si ii puteti gati la gratar, in tigaie sau la cuptor. Gatiti micii pe fiecare parte pana cand sunt bine facuti. Ii puteti servi alaturi de mustar si paine proaspata.

Ingredients:

• 1 kilogram ground beef;

• 1 kilogram ground pork;

• 10 garlic cloves, pressed;

• 2 teaspoons baking soda;

• 2 teaspoons salt;

• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper;

• 1 teaspoon granulated onion;

• 1 teaspoon sweet paprika;

• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme;

• 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander;

• a pinch of nutmeg;

• 1/4 teaspoon allspice;

• 50 milliliters sparkling mineral water.

Preparation time: 50 minutes (mix preparation and cooking)

Servings: 30 mici

Method of preparation:
In a large bowl, mix the ground beef and the ground pork using a spatula. Add the salt, pressed garlic, black pepper, sweet paprika, dried thyme, ground coriander, nutmeg, allspice, and granulated onion. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the sparkling mineral water. Let the mixture sit for 10 to 15 seconds, then pour it over the meat and spices. Mix everything very well again.

Shape the mixture into mici, about 10 centimeters long and 3 centimeters thick. To prevent sticking, moisten your hands with cold water. When you have shaped all the mici, cover the tray with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 4 hours, or ideally overnight. When you are ready to cook them, remove the mici from the fridge and cook them on a grill, in a pan, or in the oven. Cook them on each side until they are cooked through. Serve with mustard and fresh bread.
