This recipe is great served with pasta , rice or even a bed of mashed potato and green beans

Why not have it with mash and vegetables one day, then with pasta the next

This delicious, satisfying dish is so easy, as the meatballs and sauce are
baked together in the oven.

2 x 400g tins chopped tomatoes
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

Meatball mixture

500g beef mince
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 onion, finely chopped
1 tsp dried thyme or oregano
½ cup dry breadcrumbs
2 tbsp tomato sauce
salt and pepper to taste
½ tsp each salt and pepper

Method:

• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 20x30 cm ovenproof dish.

1 • Place the sauce ingredients in the prepared dish and mix.

2• Place the meatball ingredients into a large bowl and mix until well combined

3 • Shape the mixture into sixteen golf ball-size meatballs.

4• Place the meatballs on top of the sauce.

5 • Bake for 40 minutes, turning the meatballs halfway through baking.

Serves: 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 40 minutes

I am finding this recipe hard to follow. Is there a step missing here. It does not read right to me

No I just checked it seems correct to me . I have just numbered the steps to separate the steps

Can you tell me What part doesn't look right ?

I took a screen shot of the recipe and saved it.....you ae now showing the Sauce which was not there originally in my emai.

Suzanne, it says to mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl, make the meatballs and place on top of the sauce, then bake. The missing step would be to transfer the whole lot into an oven-proof dish for baking.

 

[rehandra]

The sauce directions were not there originally was what I was referring to. I had taken a screen shot abnd saved it and went back and read it and that is when I got confused. It has now been rectified ty.

No its in the same dish. You add sauce ingredients to a prepared dish (baking dish) . I didnt say a bowl

Then make meatballs and put these on top of sauce . You don't need to transfer to another dish

The sauce ingredients were there in original post I didnt change any ingredients

I just numbered and made headings The Sauce ..The meatballs forgetting that some might not know what goes into a sauce and what goes into a meatball

I'm only human and make mistakes so I apologies for error

ty that is what I meant....I did not know what went in the sauce as all the ingredients were in the one place.

 

[mylittletibbies]

For heaven's sake, no need to apologize, there wasn't any error, it was quite clear, sauce ingredients were listed separately, it says mix together in oven proof dish, place meatballs on top.
As the meerkat says. "simples"

Just looked at the screen shot, and they were listed together in that, so maybe confusing for some.I would not however been putting 2cans of tomatoes, balsamic vinegar and brown sugar in my meatballs.

I put it up in a hurry not realising people wouldn't know what you put in sauce or what is in the meatball. Normally I do try to put it in easy steps.

I should read more carefully! My apologies. The bowl was to mix the meatball ingredients.
