Juicy beef meatballs in sauce in one bowl

Ingredients

400 g of tomatoes in their own juice;
1 teaspoon sugar
400 g ground beef;
3 tablespoons of bread crumbs;
3 cloves of garlic;
1 sprig of rosemary;
⅔ glasses of grated hard cheese;
a pinch of chili flakes;
4-5 slices of mozzarella;
2 tablespoons of olive oil.

Preparation

Having ready-made minced meat on hand, cooking meatballs will take a few minutes. Combine ground beef, puréed garlic, chopped rosemary leaves, bread crumbs, a handful of grated hard cheese, and chili flakes together. Don't forget a generous pinch of salt.

For the minced meat to form better and keep its shape during frying, beat it on the bowl 4-5 times, throwing it forcefully into the bowl. This simple trick will help break up some of the meat fibers and bind them together.

Divide the meat into 8 portions and roll each into a ball.

Heat the olive oil and fry the meatballs in it over high heat. The meatballs should be crispy on the outside, but moist on the inside. This usually takes 2-3 minutes.

Peel the tomatoes and pour them over the contents of the pan. Add sugar, a pinch of salt and pepper. When most of the liquid has evaporated, taste the sauce and add more salt and pepper to taste.
