  • From the dough obtained, form 16 meatballs, give them a round shape and roll them in the sliced almonds to make them stick, place the meatballs in the pan.

  • Cook on medium heat for 10/15 minutes, gently turning the meatballs occasionally. In the end, they should be well cooked and the almonds toasted. They are ready to serve with the salad!

  • Wash the arugula well and let it drain.

  • Clean the champignon mushrooms well by removing the skin, clean the stems too, wash and dry them, then slice them thinly with the mandoline.

  • In a bowl, combine arugula and mushrooms, adjust salt and pepper, add the oil and mix well.

  • Plate by serving the salad in a bowl (I used a clay one) and place the sausage meatballs on top. Enjoy your meal!
