Preparation:
---Sauce---
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 cup minced onion
1 8 oz can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
MEATBALLS: Mix all ingredients for "Meatballs". Form into 1" balls. Cook in a single layer in a 350° F oven for about 20-30 minutes or until browned. Remove and drain.
Sauce: Cook onion in oil till tender. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer 10 minutes. Place meatballs in a crock pot. Pour sauce over and keep warm.
Can be made a day or so ahead, refrigerated in the crock, and reheated. The sauce doesn't make a lot, just enough to coat the ball |
