Boulettes are a traditional dish from Belgian and French cuisines made primarily of minced or ground meat, often beef, pork, or veal, mixed with breadcrumbs, eggs, and seasonings like onions, garlic, and parsley. Shaped into small balls and usually pan-fried or baked, they are commonly served with rich sauces such as tomato, cream, or gravy. Nutritionally, boulettes are a good source of protein and iron due to the meat content. However, they can be high in saturated fat depending on the type of meat and cooking method used. The addition of breadcrumbs can increase carbohydrate content, but whole-grain varieties offer some fiber. Pairing boulettes with vegetable sides or light sauces can balance the meal and enhance nutritional value. Enjoyed for their satisfying flavor and versatility, they are a hearty but indulgent option for meat lovers.
