Meatballs in pepper sauce
It's raining today, it's finally here, the first of the coming winter... On a day like this I'm looking for warm and comforting dishes and what could be better than meatballs in a thick and delicious sauce?
A few important notes before we start cooking. Many people ask why I put marrow bones in this dish. Well, first of all, they enrich the dish with flavor, but that's not all. They thicken the sauce to a jam-like texture! Make sure you char them well according to the recipe, and you'll understand why at the end. And as for the water... there's only half a glass of water in this dish! Please don't be tempted to add more. Red peppers have a lot of liquid, which is why they cook over low heat. Once you add the meatballs, you'll understand. Okay, let's begin.
Ingredients for meatballs:
600 grams of minced beef (ribs/neck or a combination)
1 medium onion, peeled
1 medium potato, peeled
1/4 bunch of parsley
3-4 tablespoons of breadcrumbs,
a teaspoon of minced beef,
half a teaspoon of black/white pepper, ,
a level teaspoon of sweet paprika
Half a teaspoon of turmeric
, salt (to taste),
a tablespoon of olive oil,
a quarter cup of cold water
For the sauce:
2 marrow bones (don't forget)
4 red bell peppers cut into large cubes (red prawns)
a peeled head of garlic
a tablespoon of sweet paprika
half a teaspoon of turmeric
a teaspoon of ground cumin
a teaspoon of salt (for taste)
1/3 cup olive oil/other
1/2 cup of water. .
Preparation:
Place the onion, parsley and potato in a food processor and reduce to a chopped texture.
Transfer to a bowl with the remaining meatball ingredients and mix well.
Cover and refrigerate for half an hour.
At the same time, prepare the sauce.,
Heat the oil in a pot and add the marrow bones. Brown well on both sides.
Add the garlic cloves and sauté them lightly as well.
Add the spices, mix well and add the peppers.
Mix, add the water, cover the pan and lower the heat.
Cook until you have finished making the meatballs.
Place the meatballs in the pan and make sure they are all covered in sauce.
Cover the pot and cook over low heat for about an hour.
Make sure the sauce is thick, otherwise cook for a few more minutes over high heat.

A cup corresponds to 250 ml when I mention "cup" in my recipes. Here are two tables that will help you with your conversions if you don't have a cup!
