An easy and delicious tapa dish. There are many versions of albondigas and this is one that I hope you like. Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef |
1 egg |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 lb ripe tomato, peeled and finely chopped (boil for 1 minute, shock in ice water, then peel) |
2 bouillon cubes |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup red wine |
fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Mix the ground beef with the egg and half of the chopped onion. Season with one stock cube and black pepper.
2. Pour olive oil into a large pot and heat. Roll the meat mixture into the size of ping pong balls and add them to the oil. Fry until almost done then add the rest of the onion and fry together for another couple of minutes.
3. Add tomatoes to the meatballs; add the red wine, the other stock cube and black pepper to season. Let everything simmer for another 15 minutes.
