Ingredients

For the meatballs!

  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 300 gr frozen from the 7/11 Spinach medallions
  • 1 Egg
  • 3 Tablespoons Bread crumbs
  • Per taste Salt
  • Per taste Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 Medium Onion
  • 3 Cloves Garlic Cloves
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

For the sauce!

  • 2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
  • 1 Basket Mushrooms
  • 3 stalks with leaves Celery Stalks
  • 1 medium Onion
  • From a whole lemon Lemon Juice
  • 2 liters you can also use substitute powder, chicken broth, etc. Beef Stock
  • 2 Tablespoons Flour
  • Per taste Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Make the spinach according to the instructions on the packet. Squeeze it well and make sure its very dry, then place in a bowl on the side
  • With the help of a food processor, ground the onion and the garlic cloves as much as possible and place them in the bowl aswell
  • Add the ground meat, the egg, breadcrumbs, spices and the olive oil
  • Mix well with your hands until everything becomes one. If the mix is too "soft" - add some more breadcrumbs and mix again
  • Cover the bowl with saran wrap and place in the fridge for half an hour
  • In the meantime, let's head over to the sauce...
  • Slice the mushrooms into slices
  • Chop the onion
  • Remove the leaves from the celery stalks: Chop the stalk and slice the leaves
  • In a large pan, heat up the canola oil
  • When the oil is hot, add the onion and the celery stalk
  • Fry until the onion becomes clear and then begins to brown
  • Add the mushrooms and fry for another 3-4 minutes whilst mixing until the mushrooms stop giving out liquid
  • Add the flour and mix until the flour browns
  • Add the beef stock (or substitute) and mix well whilst scraping the bottom of the pan then bring to a boil
  • Add half of the celery leaves (the other half is not needed - you can throw them away, or keep them for the table for those who want more in their dish)
  • Squeeze the lemon juice in and mix
  • Let the sauce bubble on a medium heat for a few minutes on a medium flame - in the meantime let's make those meatballs!
  • Take the meat out the fridge, make a ball a bit smaller than the size of a ping pong ball and then slowly and carefully put it in the bubbling sauce. The sauce should be on a constant bubble - that way the flour continues to thicken the sauce and the meatballs dont fall apart in the sauce
  • When all the meatballs are in, let the sauce bubble for another 3-4 minutes
  • Lower the heat to a low-medium flame (enough for a light bubble to occur) - and cook for an hour
  • It really was as simple as that! Enjoy!
  • Serve with white rice and ALOT of sauce!
