Sweet and Sour Meatballs Recipe IV

Ingredients 0/12

Step 1

Dissolv 2 teaspoons of bouillon granules in 1/4 cup of boiling water. In a big bowl, mix together the ground beef, bread crumbs, chopped onion, and egg. Pour in the bouillon mixture and combine everything well. Then, shape the mixture into meatballs about 1 to 2 inches wide.

Step 2

Heat a large pan over medium heat and brown the meatballs on all sides until they have a nice color. While the meatballs cook, mix 1/4 cup of the reserved pineapple juice with lemon juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, the rest of the bouillon granules, and ginger in a small bowl. Pour this sauce over the browned meatballs, cover the pan, and let everything simmer gently for about 25 minutes.

Step 3

In another small bowl, stir together the remaining pineapple juice and cornstarch until smooth. Add this to the pan and keep simmering until the sauce thickens up. Finally, toss in the green pepper and pineapple chunks, and heat everything through before serving.
