03 Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C/390 degrees F. Place a rack on a tray and brush it with oil.
Step 2

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients for the meatballs except oil. Do not overmix because that will result in drier meatballs. Using your hands to mix is the best way as it helps determine when the ingredients are combined.
Step 3

Shape the mixture into meatballs – about 2 tablespoons per meatball and place them on the rack, making sure that they don’t touch each other. Brush with olive oil and bake for 20-25 minutes.
Step 4

Heat all the ingredients for the sauce except jalapenos in a pan and bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer for 6-8 minutes. The sauce will thicken as it cools. Right at the end add the jalapenos (if using) and switch off the flame.
Step 5

Once the meatballs are baked, add them to the sauce and toss everything together. There will be extra sauce in the pan, which you can remove separately and serve on the side.
