Ingredients
- 3 pounds ground beef
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup minced onion
- 1/2 cup white rice
- Salt
- Pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes, seeded (about 6)
- 3 garlic cloves
Directions
- KNEAD together the ground beef, eggs, onion, rice, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- FORM bite-size (1 inch) meatballs with the ground meat, and arrange them in one layer in a large 14-inch skillet or Dutch oven (or use 2 smaller skillets, or brown in batches).
- ONCE the skillet is filled, place it over medium heat. Brown the meatballs on both sides, about 15 minutes on both sides, about 15 minutes total.
- COMBINE the tomatoes and garlic in the container of a blender or food processor. Add 2 cups of water and pureé well.
- ADD the pureé to the skillet, cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 30 minutes.
- TO prevent the meatballs from scorching, occasionally lift with a spatula-do not stir or they might break apart. Meatballs are done at about the time when the rice is cooked.
