Try using Minute Rice instead of regular rice. I used Minute Jasmine rice and they turned out great. I also made them on the stove top instead of the oven. I very much like the flavor after pre-browning the meatballs gave the dish. Thank you so much for sharing this one.
A delightful video as always! I wanted to let you know that when I made the recipe as directed, my rice still was a bit al dente, which I actually liked because it gave it some texture but it might answer your question that even if you did the recipe right, the rice would still not be 100% cooked. I also loved the flavour and the ease of the recipe. It's a winning dish in my opinion on many levels. Glad you agreed!!
Ugh touching raw meat is always such big thing! 😂 I gotta hype myself up for it too hahaha! That’s interesting that you had issues with the rice, I have a Mexican meatball recipe (that I haven’t made in years and don’t remember the exact recipe 😂) that adds raw rice to the raw meat and it all cooks together 🤔 I’ll have to look that up 😂 Ooh I see now that there was water that was supposed to go in the meat 😂 maybe that had something to do with it haha. But these sound awesome! 🙌 That fix at the end sounds great too!
We always used Minute Rice. Love them.
Been looking for this recipe a long time...I have the recipe box but the one for this was missing...my mother used it over and over.
I was so disappointed for you, but I’m so happy you were able to salvage the dish! They look delicious! 😀

Good Job! Never let the food win, as Chef John would say.
These were called porcupine meatballs at our house. I haven’t had them since I was a kid. I definitely need to make these!
I’ve made this same recipe many times and it’s always delicious!
