Beef meatballs are browned, then simmered in a sweet and sour sauce. Great as an appetizer or as a main dish served over rice.One quick and easy dinner that you can make for your family is Sweet and Sour Meatballs. As the name suggests, this is a meatball dish with sauce.
This is a recipe my mom made for years and years. Ive made it for parties as well as when Ive had company over for supper. Everyone loves these meatballs.
20 oz. can pineapple chunks, drained, reserving liquid
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/2 kg. ground beef
1/4 kg ground pork
1 small green pepper, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1-1/4 cups sugar
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 tsp. chicken-flavor bouillon
1 cup liquid (remaining pineapple liquid plus water)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Measure 1/3 cup of reserved pineapple liquid; set remaining liquid aside. In a large bowl, combine 1/3 cup pineapple liquid, breadcrumbs and garlic; blend well. Add egg and ground meats and mix well. Shape into 1-inch balls; place on un-greased baking pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until browned and thoroughly baked.
