Quantity or Quality when doing speaking practice

When practicing speaking in a language is it better to focus on quality or quantity when speaking?

What I mean by that is when doing speaking practice in my TL should I be mainly focusing on doing a large amount of speaking or should I be doing less but going over my speaking more?

What I am doing right now is speaking about a certain topic for example food and drink for maybe 2-5 minutes and then slowly going over it for around 20 minutes noting down sentence structures and vocabulary that I didn't know in order to sound more natural and fluent for next time I speak about the same topic. By doing it this way I'm only able to get about 20 minutes total spoken daily which is why unsure if what I'm doing is effective or not.

So does anyone have any experience with this problem? Thanks in advance.
