SOUTZOUKAKIA (GREEK MEATBALLS)
Steps:
- Meatballs: Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a glass baking dish with oil. In a small bowl, add the ground beef, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper. Wet the slice of bread and squeeze out all the water. Crumble into the beef mixture. Mix with your hands until combined. Shape the meat into ovals that are 2 inches long and place on the prepared baking dish. Bake 30 minutes. While the meatballs are baking make the tomato sauce. Tomato Sauce: In a dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the tomatoes, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until tomatoes have broken down, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until sauce has thickened. Once the meatballs are done, immediately add them to the tomato sauce with all the juices. Gently stir and cook on low for 5 minutes. Garnish with some chopped cilantro or parsley (optional). Serve with rice or some crusty bread.
