recipe...

I can't think of anything to write about, so ... I am posting a recipe...
Hope you try it... let me know how it goes.

Mexican Meatballs


1 kg lean beef mince

1 red onion, finely chopped

1/3 cup finely chopped fresh coriander

1 egg

2 tablespoons taco seasoning

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 red capsicum, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, crushed

800gm can diced tomatoes

Sour cream to serve

Flour tortillas, to serve


Guacamole

1 avocado

Tablespoon sour cream

½ ripe tomato, finely chopped

¼ small red onion, finely chopped

Combine mince, onion, coriander, egg and half the taco seasoning in a bowl. Roll mince mixture into small meatballs. Heat oil on fry pan and cook meatballs in batches, placing on a plate once cooked.

Add capsicum and garlic to fry pan and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until soft. Add remaining taco seasoning and cook stirring for 1 minute until aromatic. Stir in the tomato. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes. Add the meatballs and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens slightly.


To make guacamole, use a fork to mash the avocado in a bowl. Stir in the sour cream, tomato and onion.

Divide the meatballs among serving bowls. Top with guacamole, sour cream and coriander. Serve with tortillas.
