Preparation
55 min- Prepare the sauce:
- In a saucepan, heat the olive oil and add the chopped onions.
- Cook them over low heat until they become translucent.
- Add the chopped garlic at the end, just long enough for it to brown very lightly without burning.
- Put the tomatoes in the saucepan and turn the heat to medium or high.
- Let simmer for 20 minutes, adding the basil, salt and pepper.
- Lower the heat, stirring, to reduce the sauce.
- Set aside.
- Mix the ingredients with your fingers and form medium-sized balls by rolling them between your palms.
- Heat a little fat in a frying pan and cook the meatballs over medium heat, turning them regularly. Be careful, the heat should not be too high.
- Serve with pasta and the tomato sauce.
