Tender and juicy meat combined with spicy tomato sauce create a cool and extremely tasty dish. We have prepared a simple recipe for meatballs, which is perfect for everyday and holiday table.
350 g of minced pork
4 st. l. tomato paste
2 slices of white bread
1 piece egg
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp. dried oregano
salt and pepper – to taste;
green onions – to taste
1
First, you need to grind 1-2 pieces of bread in a blender or through a meat grinder. We need 3 tablespoons of breadcrumbs.
2
Prepare the minced meat. You can use pork or ground beef.
3
Add egg, bread crumbs, 0.5 teaspoons of oregano, squeeze 1 clove of garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly to form a homogeneous mass.
4
Shape the minced meatballs so that they do not turn out too big and bulky.
5
Heat a frying pan, add vegetable oil and place the meatballs to fry. Note that they should be fried over high heat until golden brown. Then transfer them to a separate container.
6
Drain the unnecessary oil from the pan, add tomato paste, dried oregano, and squeeze another clove of garlic. If desired, you can salt and pepper.
7
Bring the sauce to a boil, so it is better to use high heat.
8
Put meatballs there, reduce the gas and simmer for 20-30 minutes. For best effect, you can cover the pan with a lid.
9
Delicious and juicy meatballs in a spicy tomato sauce are ready! They can be served as a side dish to boiled potatoes or pasta, sprinkled with chopped green onions.
Bon appetit!
