Wash and drain the pine nuts. Soak the bread in water, then sponge out the water. Place the bread, some pine nuts, ground meat, salt and pepper in a bowl. Knead the mixture thoroughly, then make little balls of it, the size of a large hazelnut. Roll them in flour, then fry them in some butter.

In a frying pan, lightly brown the pine nuts in the rest of the butter, then remove them from the heat.

Prepare "Buttered Rice" as shown. When fully prepared, add the meat balls and pine nuts. Mix and serve. (You can also serve this dish in the form of a crown of rice surrounding the pine nuts and meat balls.)
