Do you have a simple recipe for albondigas, to go with churros in the morning?!
thank you
Answers: Nothing too spicy..... just plain little albondigas to go with churros and chocolate / coffee ...... I don't mind some spices like allspice, black pepper and currants.....but not olives, capers or a fancy sauce with tomatoes.... that is too much for me in the early morning....
thank you
Albondigas (Meatballs in Garlic-Tomato Sauce)
This is an easy & delicious recipe, since you want to eat them for bfast, the sauce is optional. You can also tweak the recipe to suit your personal preferences.
Meatballs:
1-2 shallots, finely minced
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds ground beef (not lean)
1/2 pound ground pork (not lean)
2/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 1/2 teaspoons salt (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
Sauce:
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (33 1/2-ounce) can whole tomatoes, including juice
3/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
In a 9-inch heavy well-seasoned skillet (preferably cast-iron) cook onion and bell pepper in 2 tablespoons oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened. Cool mixture. In a large bowl combine well onion mixture, ground meat, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, nutmeg, allspice and parsley. Form level tablespoons of mixture into balls (about 90). In skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown meatballs in batches (about 16 at a time), shaking skillet frequently so that meatballs maintain their shape and adding remaining 3 tablespoons oil as necessary. Transfer meatballs with a slotted spoon as browned to a bowl.
Sauce:
In a heavy kettle (at least 6 quarts) cook garlic in oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add tomatoes with juice and oregano and simmer, breaking up tomatoes. Add meatballs and simmer, covered, gently stirring occasionally, 25 minutes, or until meatballs are tender and sauce is thickened slightly. Transfer meatballs with slotted spoon to heated serving dish. If sauce seems thin, boil gently, stirring frequently, until thickened to desired consistency. Season sauce with salt and pepper and spoon over meatballs. Meatballs and sauce may be made 2 days ahead. Let it cool uncovered and chill covered. reheat meatballs before serving.
Try porridge and water with toast and orange its great.
