Hey friends!
Well, I tried this new recipe for sweet & sour meatballs last week, and they were sooooooo good! I took what was left to the in-laws, and they liked them as well. In fact, my mother-in-law asked me today if I had put the recipe up on the blog yet because she wanted to make them herself.
I have made sweet & sour meatballs in the crockpot before, but I didn't like the way that they turned out. They did not keep their shape and turned out too mushy. Plus, I didn't care for the recipe that I had used for the sauce. This new recipe is fast and done on the stove top. It was great because you saute the meatballs first, and they stay firm and keep their shape. Plus, I thought that the sweet and sour sauce was delicious! I served these over white rice that I cooked in my rice cooker, and it was a fantastic weeknight dinner. I definitely recommend this recipe! 👍
Servings: 4-5
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 egg
1 onion, chopped
1 cup dry bread crumbs
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 cup water
1/2 cup cider/white vinegar (the original recipe called for cider vinegar. I used white vinegar.)
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions:
1.) In a large bowl, combine beef, egg, onion, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. (I used my hands to mix everything together.)
2.) Roll mixture into meatballs, about 1 1/2 inches in size.
3.) In a large skillet over medium heat, saute meatballs until browned on all sides.
4.) In a separate medium bowl, whisk together water, vinegar, ketchup, cornstarch, brown sugar, and soy sauce.
5.) Pour sauce mixture over meatballs and allow the sauce to thicken over medium heat, until sauce just starts to bubble.
6.) Serve over white rice or by themselves.
Enjoy!
