That's all the ingredients we'll need. Any meat for this dish is suitable - pork, beef, chicken, any other or a mixture of various types of meat - it will be even tastier. I have pork today. You can also take ready-made minced meat - how familiar and more convenient you are

The first step is to soak the loaf in milk and mash it with a fork

We rinse the meat well under running water, remove veins, films and cut it as convenient for a meat grinder. Onions and garlic are also peeled, mine, onions are cut into 4 parts

We pass meat, onions and garlic through a meat grinder. I prefer to scroll the mince myself - so I know exactly what it is from and I am sure of its freshness, because it is no secret that mince is a perishable product and many sellers go to all sorts of tricks to pass off a low-quality product as fresh

Minced salt to taste

We pepper

We add a little spice to taste - today I added a little Italian herbs, they will give our dish an unusual Mediterranean aroma, you can use your favorite spices

Drive in the egg

We add a loaf, which we previously soaked. If desired, it can be passed through a meat grinder along with mince, I usually do not

Mince is well kneaded, I usually do it with my hands and beat a little against the table, so we will get rid of the extra air, it will become more dense and will keep fit well

The cheese variety for this dish is absolutely any - the one that you have today - Russian, Dutch, Suluguni, etc. is not of fundamental importance here, it is three for a large grater

We grease the baking tray with vegetable oil, but I took the baking paper - for sure nothing will come and the tray does not need to be washed for a long time (such a life hack in the kitchen). With our hands we form a ball from minced meat, and then make a recess, getting a semblance of a nest

Put some grated cheese inside each nest

We drive 2 quail eggs into each nest. Of course, you can take one chicken egg, but then drive in the yolk first, then carefully fill the remaining place with protein. But personally, in my opinion, with quail testicles it turns out more original

Bake the preheated oven at 180 degrees 30-35 minutes so that the top of the egg does not dry, you can cover the nests with foil

Fragrant and beautiful meat nests are ready

Enjoy your meal!
