Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 Slice of sandwich bread
2 Tablespoons of milk
1 Pound ground beef (85/15%fat)
1 whole egg
1 garlic clove finely chopped or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional boiled eggs or small cubes of cheese
1 1/2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup white onion (finely chopped)
2 garlic clove (finely diced)
3 Large tomatoes (chopped (22 oz))
1-2 Canned Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce "La Morena"*
1/2 Cup Chicken broth or water if needed**
Salt and pepper to taste.
Chopped parsley or cilantro to garnish

Steps:

  • Place the slice of bread and milk in a large bowl. Mash bread until smooth and add ground meat. egg, salt, garlic, and pepper. Knead the mixture with your hands until it is well combined.
  • Form 1 1/2-inch meatballs, rolling a small portion of your hands. You should have 16 meatballs. Wet your hands with cold water before forming the meatballs to avoid the meat from sticking to your hands.
  • Many cooks in Mexico like to stuff the meatballs with a small piece of boiled egg or cheese. Others even add a small piece of a Serrano pepper. To do this, press the small piece of egg or cold cheese into the meatball and seal by rolling the meatball again between your hands.
  • Place tomatoes and Chipotle Peppers in your blender and process until you have a very smooth sauce. The amount given renders 2 1/2 cups of sauce.
  • Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion until transparent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, stir, and keep cooking for 3 more minutes.
  • Stir in tomato sauce and simmer for 5 minutes. Add chicken broth or water if needed. Transfer meatballs to saucepan, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove lid and keep simmering for 10 more minutes. If your sauce is too watery, remove the already cooked meatballs and place them in a warm oven, covered with aluminum foil, while you keep simmering the sauce until the desired thickness is achieved.

2 eggs
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 lb ground turkey
1 lb good local mexican ground loose chorizo, pork or beef
1/2 cup fresh mint and or basil..or a combo

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup red wine
1/4 c sherry or 1 tsp sugar or honey
a handfull of semi sweet chocolate chips (or Mexican chocolate if you have it!)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
dash of ground cloves
salt to taste
fresh chopped cilantro to garnish

Steps:

  • Slice the tomatoes and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Drizzle a tiny bit of EVOO over and sprinkle with a little salt. Place in a 450 oven and roast for 20-25 minutes... meanwhile Make the albondigas: place the bacon and garlic cloves in a food processor and whiz. Add the eggs and bread crumbs, whiz again. Add the ground chorizo and tukey, mint and/or basil and 1 tsp salt. Whiz to combine all but dont overdo it into a paste. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl. Scoop 1/2 of this meat mixture into a ziplock baggie and freeze for easy albondigas later! Set bowl aside. Clean out the food processor. Remove the roasted tomatoes from the oven when they are ready and scrape them and all their juices into the clean food processor. Clean off the baking sheet that had the tomatoes on it and oil it lightly for roasting the meatballs. Roll large spoonfulls of meat mixture into meatballs about the size of a golf or ping pong ball. Place them on the baking sheet. Roast in the same 450 oven for 15 minutes. Turn them and roast an additional 10 minutes. While the meatballs roast: Add the onion and garlic to the food processor with your roasted tomatoes. Whiz to chop well. Add the chipotles and the adobo sauce plus 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp sugar. Whiz to a nice thin paste consisitancy. On the stove top, heat 2 TBS EVOO. When oil is hot, add the tomato/ chipotle mixture. It will sputter and pop. This is good. Stand by with a wooden flat spoon or sturdy spatula and let the sauce cook for 5 minutes or so, undisturbed, to develope that wonderful dark crud underneath. Stir well and continue to cook, letting the crud keep forming and then scraping it up for about another 20-25 minutes total. This is where the flavor deepens! Manage the heat and your stirring so it doesnt burn.. just keep developing that rich brown crud, then scrape it up smooth it out, and wait for it to form again.... now add the chicken broth and stir to deglaze. Add the red wine and sherry. Stir and let cook 5 minutes or so. Add the cinnamon, cloves and handfull of chocolate. Stir to melt the chocolate. Season with salt as needed. Turn off heat. Your meatballs are probably done now. Remove from oven and place them into the crock pot. Pour the cooked sauce over and stir gently to combine. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours or more until soft and cooked through. Stir in or garnish with chopped fresh cilantro at the end and serve with crushed chiltipin on the side for those who like the extra heat!

DH and I have two favorite meatball recipes, this one and meatballs in a mexican-style soup. I like these in sandwiches; he likes them in tortillas. Sometimes I just make the sauce for pasta. This is also a good recipe to double and freeze.

Categories     Pork

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 lbs ground pork
4 slices bacon, coarsely chopped
1 garlic clove, diced (I use 2 if using bottled minced garlic)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarse-ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons dried mint
1/2 teaspoon dried epazote
1 (28 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes
2 garlic cloves (again, I increase if using bottled minced)
2 canned chipotle chiles
1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from chipotle can)
2 teaspoons Mexican oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
chicken broth or beef broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450.
  • Make meatballs:.
  • Combine all meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well with hands (or a wooden spoon if you must, but using your hands works better and is much more fun!) Form into medium-large balls (I usually get 15), and place in a 13x9 baking dish. Bake until browned, 15 minutes. Drain excess fat from dish.
  • While meatballs are baking, make sauce:.
  • Combine sauce ingredients in blender and process to a smooth puree.
  • Pour sauce over browned meatballs and return to oven for another 20 minutes, or until the sauce is thickened. We like the sauce nice and thick, but if you prefer a thinner sauce, add a little chicken or beef broth to it.
