ALBONDIGAS (SPANISH MEATBALLS)
A very popular Spanish tapas dish - I can't vouch for the authenticity, but it tastes great. Lamb can be used as a substitute for beef if desired. Taken from my blog at http://onceuponathyme.wordpress.com/2008/11/30/albondigas-spanish-meatballs/

Steps:
- Mix the mince with the egg and half the onion. Season with 1 stock cube and black pepper.
- Roll the mixture with your hands into ping pong sized balls and fry in oil until almost cooked (the meatballs can still be slightly pink in middle as they are going to simmer in the sauce). Drain all but 1tbsp oil in the pan, retaining the bit's of meat that are left in the bottom of the pan. Add the rest of the onions and some garlic and fry for a further 2 minutes - they should turn a beatiful meaty colour.
- Add the 2 tins of chopped tomatoes and a good sprinkling of mixed herbs (I used Herbs de Provence). Add in the red wine and crumble in the final stock cube, then season again if required.
- Simmer for 20 minutes so that the sauce thickens - longer if it requires it.
- Serving Suggestion - This can be served on it's own as part of a tapas meal, or you could serve these with spaghetti or some Spanish rice.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the pork, veal, garlic, breadcrumbs, spices, egg and season with salt and pepper. Mix by hand until the mixture is smooth and leaves the side of the bowl. Refrigerate covered for one hour.
- When ready to cook, roll tablespoons of the mixture into balls.
- Heat one tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan and brown half the meatballs on medium-high heat (3 minutes). Drain on paper towels.
- Add the remaining oil, if necessary, and brown the other half of the meat balls. Drain on paper towels. Set aside the meatballs while making the sauce.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion on medium high until translucent (about 3 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
- Increase the heat to high and add the wine. Boil for 1 minute.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano and stock and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in the cayenne pepper.
- Add the peas and the meat balls and simmer for 10 minutes or until the sauce is thick. Serve hot.

These savory little meatballs are browned and then added to a delicious white wine sauce. They can be served as part of a tapas buffet or as a main course over noodles or rice. From a January 1986 issue of Bon Appetit magazine that featured "The Best of Madrid".
