How to make Ground Beef Meatballs in Oregano Sauce:
- Prepare all the ingredients to make our minced meat meatballs.
- For meat, it is best to use beef but if you can, ask the butcher for a mixture of 70% beef and 30% pork, this way you will get much juicier meatballs.
- To flavor the meat of the meatballs, chop the onion finely together with the garlic, half the parsley and the thyme. Add this to the meat and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- On the other hand, we boil the tomato and remove the skin. To do this, we put the tomato with its skin in a pot and let it cook until the skin begins to come off, we remove it and take it out of the water.
- We recover the meat and form the meatballs. To do so, we make balls with our meat mixture and pass them through flour. You should get about 8-10 meatballs. Booking.
- The meatballs can be made with more ingredients, as in the cheese-filled meatballs recipe, or covered in breadcrumbs instead of flour, as in the fried meatballs recipe
- Heat about 3 tablespoons of oil in a pan and when it is very hot, place the meatballs inside. In this way we will begin to cook them. Keep cooking over medium heat.
- On the other hand we start to prepare the oregano sauce, then we take the tomato and remove the skin, blend it together with 1 clove of garlic and strain. Add oregano and reserve.
- When our meatballs are golden, add the tomato and oregano sauce along with the other half of the smooth parsley, and let it reduce.
- Finally we rectify salt and pepper and serve our ground meat meatballs in oregano sauce. To accompany you can prepare white rice or baked potatoes, in this way you will take advantage of the dish sauce for everything.
