Sweet & Sour Meatballs
These sound really good, think meatball sandwiches, spaghetti and meatball soup, stews, macaroni and meatballs, or even served as is over rice. I need to test this recipe out.

Cuisine American
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 340 grams chili sauce, I will clarify this when I make it
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Mix together beef, garlic powder, onion powder, egg, and bread crumbs. Form into small balls and set aside.
Pour chili sauce into medium saucepan. Refill bottle with water, shake well, and add to pot. Add the brown sugar and lemon juice, and mix. Bring sauce to a boil. Taste and adjust amounts of lemon juice and brown sugar to taste. Drop in meatballs. Return to boil, reduce to a simmer and cover, and cook about 30 minutes. Serve as is over rice or use in any number of recipes calling for meatballs.
Ground beef will run about 100 Baht/500 grams, for 4 servings this is about 73 cents per serving.
