Albóndigas en Salsa

Ingredients

• •1 lb ground beef
• •1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• •1 egg
• •1/4 cup milk
• •1/2 teaspoon salt
• •1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• •2 tablespoons olive oil
• •1 onion, diced
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
• •1 cup beef broth
• •1 teaspoon cumin

Directions

1. 1Mix ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl, then form into 16-20 meatballs.
2. 2Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and brown meatballs on all sides, about 8 minutes total; remove and set aside.
3. 3In the same pot, sauté diced onion until softened, about 3 minutes, then add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
4. 4Stir in crushed tomatoes, beef broth, and cumin, bring to a simmer.
5. 5Return meatballs to the pot and simmer for 20-25 minutes until sauce thickens and meatballs are cooked through.
6. 6Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving.

💡 Brown albóndigas before simmering them in salsa if the mixture feels soft; a light crust helps them survive the sauce without breaking.
