Method

  • step 1

    Season the beef and shape into walnut-sized meatballs. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the meatballs until brown on all sides. Scoop out of the pan and set aside. Add the onion to the pan and cook for a few mins to soften. Add the garlic and mushrooms, and fry for a few mins until the mushrooms soften and start to brown a little. Stir in the tomato purée, paprika and flour for 1 min, then add the stock, bit by bit, to make a smooth sauce. Return the meatballs to the pan, cover and simmer gently for 15 mins or until the meatballs are cooked through.

  • step 2

    Stir in the soured cream and most of the parsley, and season to taste. Serve scattered with the remaining parsley, with rice, mashed potato or tagliatelle.

For a family of four (2 teenagers) I double the amounts. You then get a really nice portion of a tasty dish

A really great recipe. Instead of mushrooms As I am in Ireland I I used Dunne's Stores Grilled Vegetables. The fish was amazing. Thanks for sharing.

I made this using ready made meatballs from the supermarket and also with vegetarian ‘meatballs’. Both were delicious and very tasty. Personally I would have liked a bit more of the sauce so maybe would increase quantities next time. I served it with pesto mash and steamed green vegetables. …

I have been making this for years and it's never let me down. I usually make it as it's written but if I'm really in a hurry, I'll season the beef and cook it without forming it into meatballs, just breaking it up into good sized pieces as it browns.

This was very nice. I added oats to the beef and chipotle paste and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. I baked them in the oven rather than fry them. I also used ricotta cheese rather than sour cream and added spinach to the dish just before serving. I would do it again.
