This may be one of the most popular meatball recipes typical of our country: meatballs with tomato. A classic in any home and in any bar as a tapa. And they are really delicious and very easy. In addition, they are perfect for children, they will love them! Especially if we accompany them with fried potatoes or rice.

La ketchup, being totally homemade, It is delicious and it is very you. To cook the meatballs we can choose to steam them using the varoma, fry them in a traditional way or, as I have done, make them in the oven. I usually prepare them like this because it takes less time, they are healthier and they are very tasty.

And finally, the meatballs are a fantastic dish to leave prepared with in advance, transport in tupper o freeze in servings.

    Could the 15 min of the tomato be used to make the meatloaf in the basket, as in other meatloaf recipes? Previously browned in a pan, of course.
    Thank you

        Hi ! Can the meatballs be put in the basket? I've never done it like this ... I usually put them in the varoma container. Thanks for the idea !!!

          Hello Sandra, yes, if there are 500 g of meat, it is possible to put them in the basket… if there are many more, I don't think they will fit. In fact, I think they are richer in the basket than in the varoma because it gives them the juice of the sauce more directly. 🙂 Thanks for writing us !!
