Zubereitung von Always Perfect Sweet And Sour Meatballs
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, egg, and matzo meal. Avoid overmixing.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
- Pour chili sauce into a medium saucepan.
- Refill the empty chili sauce bottle with water, shake well, and add the water to the saucepan.
- Stir in brown sugar and lemon juice.
- Bring the sauce to a boil.
- Taste and adjust the amount of lemon juice and brown sugar to your preference.
- Gently add the meatballs to the sauce.
- Bring the sauce back to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
- If using a substitute for chili sauce (tomato sauce, juice, or diced tomatoes), adjust the amount of sweetener and water to achieve a desired saucy consistency—not too thick or thin.
- If using plain tomato sauce or juice, consider adding extra garlic powder or other seasonings to enhance the flavor.
- Serve immediately over rice, pasta, or your favorite side dish.
