Рецепт My Chinese Meatballs

I come from a meatball loving family. Like I have said before – many think that meatballs are just balls of ground beef in spaghetti sauce and served with spaghetti. This is so far from the truth!

Meatballs can be made in many different sizes – from the tiny ones you find in Italian Wedding Soup to the baseball-or bigger-sized ones I make for a nice dish of homemade macaroni (that is pasta to many of you – to the Italians – it's MACARONI!)

And I do enjoy some Chinese dishes as well. The unfortunate thing with eating Chinese food – if I don't make it myself – I can't eat it.

Take me to a Chinese restaurant and before I am half through with my meal I will begin to "grow" large red welts all over my entire face and body. They itch terribly and they hurt like hell. I walk in normal and walk out looking like a monster. Not good for business either.

So I DIM – do-it-myself.

Being in the mood for rice and veggies, I decided to make some of my "Chinese" meatballs to go with it. I started making these over 50 years ago – and everyone likes them.

Ингредиенты

  • I began with a bit over a pound of ground chuck. To this I added Kosher salt, black pepper, garlic, parsley, ground ginger, and several splashes of low-sodium soy sauce. I added about 1 1/2 cups shredded cabbage and about 1/2 cup shredded onion as well. Mixed well and formed into meatballs – I happened to get 9 good-sized ones.

Инструкции

  1. []I fried them in my garlic-flavored olive oil until done.
  2. Just before they were done I made my rice – the choice at that time was simple Minute Rice which I used beef bouillon to cook it in instead of plain water, still added the bit of butter and a bit of salt – but not too much salt because I gave it a splash or two of the soy sauce. This is also a great way to use up leftover rice and veggies!
  3. In a separate pan, I cooked my frozen veggie mix of snap peas, broccoli, etc. and I added frozen green peas and since I had leftover steamed carrots from the day before – I added those as well.
  4. Combined my cooked veggies and hot rice; served with my "Chinese" meatballs.
  5. I also added a nice thick slice of my onion bread – which I absolutely love.
