Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Kibebet (Stuffed Meatball) (Boiled)
Metabolic Effect: Boiled stuffed meatballs provide a moderate level of energy thanks to their balance of carbohydrates and protein. However, having a lower fat content compared to frying helps to raise blood sugar more steadily.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming stuffed meatballs with a salad with plenty of lemon increases iron absorption and facilitates digestion. Additionally, consuming it with probiotic-containing foods such as yogurt or cacık supports gut health.
Things to Consider: One medium-sized stuffed meatball contains carbohydrates equivalent to approximately 2 slices of bread. It is recommended that those who want to control their weight pay attention to portions and do not exceed 1-2 pieces per week.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from boiled stuffed meatballs, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes. Alternatively, 15 minutes of brisk running or 20 minutes of cycling can provide similar results.
