Meatballs is one of the favorites at our house, and I love it since it freezes amazing! I prepare this in larger quantities (15-20 lb) and freeze in supper sizes. Im giving you the smaller version but it doubles, triples, etc really easily.
For those that asked this is from the Purim in the Palace menu ;)
Meatballs ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/3 cup matza meal (breadcrumbs work also)
3/4 teaspoon each: salt, black pepper & oregano
(optional: 1/2 onion grated- my kids don't like pieces in their meatballs so I skip it)
Sauce:
1 cup jellied cranberry sauce
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup ketchup (you can use tomato sauce for it all)
1-3 Tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoon lemon juice
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix meat ingredients and set aside. (If its too thick, add a bit water)
Mix sauce ingredients in a pot and cook over low flame for 1/2 hour.
While sauce is cooking, form meat into balls
Stir it until its smooth (at times, Ill use the immersion blender to quicken it up)
Add meatballs into the sauce and simmer for 1 hour
Enjoy with spaghetti or rice
