Инструкции

  1. To make meatballs: Saute/fry onion and garlic in oil till they are translucent/soft.
  2. Stir in grnd beef, bread crumbs, egg, mint, salt and pepper.
  3. Form meat mix into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter (size of golf balls). Place meatballs on cookie sheets and bake for 20 min in a 350-degree oven. Turn them over and bake for another 20 min, or possibly till they are brown.
  4. To make sauce: In a large pot, heat extra virgin olive oil and saute/fry onion, garlic and celery for 3-5 min. Add in tomatoes, oregano, bay leaf, cinnamon, salt and pepper. (Don't overseason the sauce - it should be smooth and mild.) Cover sauce and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and allow sauce to simmer while meatballs are baking.
  5. When meatballs are done, remove them from oven and drain off any fat. Squeeze lemon juice over meatballs and let them sit for 15 min.
  6. Remove bay leaf from sauce and add in meatballs. Stir in margarine. Serve warm as either an appetizer or possibly main dish.
