Why is this dish called Canadian meatballs? I have no idea. But it’s what my brother and sister used to describe it and the name just stuck. Ever since I tried it a few years back, I’ve been asking for this every time I come to visit. It is easy to make and so delicious! Try it for yourself
What you’ll need:
1 lb. ground beef
1 large onion
2 tbsp. tomato paste
2 cups of water
3 tbsp. oil
1 ½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. tumeric
½ tsp. paprika
½ tsp. black pepper
In a large bowl, shred one onion and add beef, 1 tsp. salt and black pepper. Mix together until well blended.
Add the oil to a frying pan. Form little 1 inch meatballs and lay them in the skillet. Cook over medium heat until slightly browned.
In a second pot add 1 tbsp. of oil, tomato paste, and the rest of the spices and cook for a couple minutes. Add meatballs and 1 to 2 cups of water until all meatballs are covered. Cook for another 20 minutes over medium heat.
Serve with rice.
