This dish is a little time-consuming to make, but it's worth it. The meatballs are so flavorful, and the sauce is to die for.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy at all. It was more like a chunky tomato sauce.

I followed the recipe exactly, and the meatballs turned out a little dry. I think I would add some more liquid to the mixture next time.
