Title: Steamed Meatballs with Tomato Sauce
Post by: trudy o on June 02, 2009, 11:04:20 am: Name of Recipe: Meatballs with tomato sauce
Number of People:
Ingredients:

500g beef
80g bread (for crumbs)
1 egg
1 onion
1 carrot

SAUCE: 1 onion
3 celery sticks
20g oil
180g tomatos, quartered
2tspn vege stock (made in thermomix)
200g water
2tbspn flour
pepper
1tsp paprika

Preparation:

Put bread in thermomix and make breadcrumbs (sorry I didn't use exact times or speeds). Place to one side.

Make mince from meat and add other ingredients, including breadcrumbs. Make into meatballs and place on oiled varoma trays. Put in fridge for 15 min.

Put all ingredients for the sauce in the thermomix and use speed 8 for 10 sec.

Put the varoma on top and cook for 25 min at varoma temperature on speed 1.

I had this with the garlic rice and it was really nice (steamed meatballs have a different flavour to fried though so bear that in mind.

Can't remember where I got this recipe but I adapted it to suit the thermomix.

I did the garlic rice while the meatballs were in the fridge (ie before cooking them) and put it in the thermoserver and it was still warm when served.

Moonmobile - I made this recipe and it was delicious. I made some adaptations to make it gluten free.
