My husband makes these easy meatballs with simple ingredients like eggs, panko bread crumbs, garlic powder, and fresh basil, and they come out flavorful and delicious every time! Kids love them too! If desired, add the cooked meatballs to your favorite sauce until submerged (this brings out the moistness).

SPICED PORK MEATBALLS WITH GUACAMOLE

Provided by loveleesmile

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 lbs organic ground pork
1 red chile, finely chopped with its seeds
1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 lemon, zest of, grated
3 ripe organic avocados
3 limes, juice of
1 chile, finely chopped, with its seeds
sea salt
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the meatballs: Throw everything into a large bowl and mix together well with your fingers.
  • Form into small balls, the size of walnuts. At this point, you can refrigerate the meat for an hour or two until you need it. Remember, if you cover the meatballs and put them in the refrigerator, don't cook them until they come back to room temperature, I cook mine on a griddle with no fat - there is enough in the meatballs - until crusted and crisped all over and cooked through to the stage where no pink juices flow out of the meat when you test it with a skewer.
  • Make the guacamole: Mash the avocados on a plate with a fork until they are smooth, but with the odd lump for texture. Stir in the lime juice, chilies, and salt. Scrape into a bowl, cover, and chill for an hour. Stir in the cilantro, taste, and adjust the seasoning and citrus to taste.
  • Lob spoons of the guacamole onto the pork meatballs hot from the griddle. If you want to eat this as a main course, you can make the pork balls into large, flat burgers, broil them in the same way, top them with guacamole, and put them over and under a good floury bun or tortilla.

EASY MEATBALLS TOPPED WITH GUACAMOLE



Easy Meatballs Topped With Guacamole image

This is not my original recipe -- but I did tweak it. It is a recipe by talented local food editor, Barbara Joubert, of Sarie (a popular Afrikaans woman's magazine). Her recipes are usually very practical, economical and easy. This is a fat meatball, which she called "a burger without the bun". I added some extra seasoning and used an organic (shop-bought) guacamole because no ripe avo's were available. Serve as a main, or in a bun if you like. We use metric weights and measures, but I give the American equivalents in brackets.

Categories     Meatballs

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 13

500 g pork sausages (2 lbs 2 oz approx., real British-style pork bangers)
500 g ground beef (2 lbs 2 oz approx, don't use very lean ground, just ordinary ground beef)
1 medium onion, finely chopped (red is nicest but I used a sweet onion)
1 tablespoon thyme leaves, fresh (can use dried as well)
1 tablespoon lemon zest (usually 1 lemon, I used a tablespoon)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce (or other hot sauce) (optional)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (any you like)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground
1 egg, large
2 tablespoons olive oil (for frying, use more if necessary)
250 g guacamole (8 oz, make your own or buy ready-made)

Steps:

  • Remove the pork sausage meat from the skins, and mix with the ground beef with a fork or your hands, but do not compress too much.
  • Set oven at 180 deg C or 350 deg F, while you prepare the onion, zest, etc.
  • Add the finely-chopped onion, thyme, lemon zest, chopped garlic, hot sauce. Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt and pepper. (Mix in the ingredients as you add them).
  • Break in the egg. Mix in well, until ingredients are well incorporated.
  • Use a utensil which can go on both your hob and also into the oven. (The new kind of non-stick black stoneware is absolutely amazing, otherwise use an oven-safe skillet).
  • Heat the pan well and add the olive oil. Form 6 - 8 fat, generous meatballs, and fry on both sides until nicely browned but not done.
  • Put the pan or dish with the meatballs in the pre-heated oven, and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes longer.
  • Serve with large blobs of guacamole, and salad ingredients. Or use as a main meat dish with veggies and salad.

Tips:

  • Selecting the Right Beef: Choose a ground beef blend that contains a mixture of lean and fatty cuts, such as 80/20 or 85/15. This will ensure juicy and flavorful meatballs.
  • Seasoning to Perfection: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A flavorful combination of garlic, onion, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper is essential for adding depth and taste to the meatballs.
  • Achieving the Right Texture: To create tender and moist meatballs, incorporate some bread crumbs or panko breadcrumbs into the mixture. They absorb moisture and help bind the ingredients together.
  • Properly Pan-frying: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Cook the meatballs in batches, ensuring they have enough space to brown evenly on all sides.
  • Creating a Savory Sauce: Simmer the meatballs in a delicious tomato sauce made with crushed tomatoes, garlic, onion, and Italian herbs. This adds richness and depth of flavor to the dish.
  • Perfecting the Guacamole: Use ripe avocados for a creamy and flavorful guacamole. Season it with lime juice, cilantro, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper to create a zesty and refreshing topping for the meatballs.
