   • Begin by finely chopping or blending the minced beef, garlic, and a pinch of coarse sea salt. To facilitate the blending process, add some ice-cold water.
   • Once the beef mixture is smooth or nearly smooth, add the minced kampung chicken. Mix thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

2. Incorporate the Flour:

   • Transfer the meat mixture into a bowl. Add the potato flour (or cornstarch, tapioca, or sago flour if potato flour is unavailable). This ingredient helps bind the mixture together.

3. Shape and Cook the Meatballs:

   • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Using two spoons, shape the meat mixture into small balls and gently drop them into the boiling water.
   • Continue to cook until all the meatballs are floating and firm, indicating they are cooked through.

4. Cool and Store:

   • Remove the meatballs from the water and let them cool. They can be used immediately in your baby’s meals.
   • Any leftover meatballs can be stored in the freezer. For added convenience, keep them with some of the cooking broth to use as a natural stock when reheating.

These Bakso Asa meatballs are not only great for your baby’s diet but also adaptable for various dishes as they grow. Enjoy preparing this wholesome and comforting recipe for your little one!
