Meatball & Tomato Sauce (Moroccan Tagine) image

This recipe was originally for a Moroccan tagine. I changed some of the ingredients to make a wonderful meatball & tomato sauce. The different spices give it delightful sweet & spicy flavor. It is one of my favorite dishes, goes beautifully with Recipe #260654.
