Looking for the right meatball recipe? Look no further! These candy and sour meatballs are tender, perfectly seasoned, and amazingly delicious!


INGREDIENTS
MEATBALLS:
 1 1/2 kilos lean floor meat (see note)
 3/4 cup fast oats or old school oats that had been frivolously pulsed in a blender
 2 eggs, reasonably beaten
 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
 1/4 cup milk
 1 teaspoon salt
 1/2 teaspoon pepper
 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

SAUCE:
 1/4 - 1/2 cup brown sugar (depending on how candy you desire the sauce)
 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
 1/4 cup barbeque sauce (my favourite selfmade model here)
 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
 Hot, cooked rice for serving

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 stages F.
For the meatballs, combine all the meals and blend well. Form into about 12 meatballs (right round 2-inches each). Place in a frivolously greased 9X13-inch pan.
For the sauce, whisk collectively the meals till well-combined.
Pour the sauce over the meatballs and bake for 30 minutes or till the meatballs are cooked via and the sauce is reasonably thickened.
Serve over hot, cooked rice, if desired.

NOTES
I generally use a mixture of lean floor pork and lean floor turkey but actually any floor meat could work properly - simply preserve in thoughts that in case you do now not desire the grease to pool within the backside of the baking dish (ew), use a quite lean meat.

Also, I extremely suggest doubling the sauce in case you're keen on dishes like this a little saucier. Very often, I forego the baking and rather brown the meatballs in a skillet (or if doubling, I use my vast electrical skillet) on all aspects after which drain any grease (most typically there is now not any if utilizing lean meat). Pour the sauce into the skillet, hide and permit the meatballs simmer for 10-15 minutes till cooked through, turning as soon as or twice.

Freezable Meal: After overlaying the meatballs with sauce, hide the pan with NULL layers of aluminum foil and freeze. To bake, preheat the oven to 350 stages and bake included with out thawing for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 20-30 minutes more, till meatballs are cooked through.

This is a favourite meal of ours that I had been making for years.

On Sunday evenings whilst I am planning our weekly menu, I’ll ask Brian to provide me at the least one meal suggestion.

No fail, he both comes up with this dish or his different fave, Sweet and Sour Chicken.

By the way, I generally veto his suggestions, though, simply due to the fact I even have so many recipes to strive that I don’t like consuming the identical factor week after week.

Rude, I know, but how will I ever strive all those recipes earlier than I die if I am making Sweet and Sour Meatballs or Chicken each week?

These meatballs also are a vast winner with my kidlets.

The meatballs are gentle and perfectly seasoned, especially after baking within the easy candy and sour sauce.

For me, here's absolutely a right weeknight meal – and we take pleasure in it typically (but obviously now not as typically as Brian could like)!

Update Nov. 2014: After five or so years residing at the blog, this recipe wanted an replace (mostly the photos). I also gave a number of extra ideas and lessons within the recipe.

I cut the milk down to 1/4 cup to make the meatballs sturdier (the unique was 1/2 cup in case you desire to stay with that) and I generally scale again the sugar to 1/4 cup as properly (1/2 cup within the original).

And of course, I all the time double the sauce since we love it at the saucy side.

Read the notes beneath the recipe name for one other cooking variation that's rapid and oven-free.
