  2. Cut the small escargots in half. Add them to your ground meat along with the raisins. Form small balls. Carefully roll them in flour.
  3. Chop the onions. Fry them in a skillet with butter. When they are slightly browned, add your floured mini balls. Fry gently to colour them well. Add the veal stock, cream and Liege syrup. Season and allow half the liquid to evaporate. Bind the sauce lightly.
  4. Cook the al dente pasta in a large pot of salted water. Drain and add the cooked pasta to the meatballs, mix everything together and sprinkle with fresh herbs.
