The combination of beef and pork mince gives them a rich and deep taste, while the addition of parmesan and herbs adds an exquisite touch. Cooking in a multicooker allows for perfect tenderness, and slow simmering in tomato sauce makes them juicy. They pair perfectly with pasta sprinkled with parmesan, creating an ideal dinner for the whole family. The dish impresses with its simplicity and depth of flavor, while its slow preparation turns the meal into a true delight.
