Description
Tender and savory, these Sephardic Meatballs have a vibrant flavor owing to the infusion of spices, and they have a slight kick to them for those who like to bring a little heat to the dinner table. Made with ground beef, the meatballs are fried and then added to a thick garlic beef broth sauce and heated to absorb the savory flavors of the sauce. These meatballs make a great addition to any potluck and can be served by themselves or on a bed of pasta.
