Pork meatballs in mushroom sauce
Background
Meatballs are very popular, with adults & kids alike, particularly in tomato sauce. These zesty pork meatballs in mushroom sauce are very tasty and very easy to make -Β a nice change Β if you feel like something different. You can use ready prepared meat balls too (beef ones are good too!), so you'll only have to make the sauce! Easy-peasy for a no-fuss midweek meal! Serve with pasta, rice or a mash.
Ingredients
- For the Meatballs:
- 500g minced pork
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
- grated zest of 1 lemon
- For the Sauce:
- 250g button mushrooms
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 Tbsp medium sherry
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 100g double cream (or crème fraîche)
- 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Put the meatball ingredients into a blender and pulse until well combined. Season with salt and pepper, then knead it through. Form 12- 15 little balls, put these on a lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the mushrooms in a ovenproof dish, add the garlic and drizzle with oil. Bake for 10 minutes in the oven.
- Take the mushrooms out of the oven add the double cream and sherry and gently cook on the stove until you get a thick sauce. Stir in the parsley.
