Cheddar Stuffed Meatballs with Rosemary

  • Preparation time: 30 mins
  • Total time : 50 mins
  • Total time : PT80M


Ingredients

  • Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup cranberry juice
  • 1/2 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • Salt and Ground pepper, to taste
  • Meatballs:
  • 1 lb ground lean veal
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 slice of whole wheat bread, crumbled
  • 2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 5 oz block of medium Cheddar cheese, diced in 1/4-inch (0.75 cm) cubes

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 °F (230 °C).

In a small skillet, bring cranberry juice and fruit to a boil along with maple syrup. Cook 8 to 10 minutes.

Puree cranberries until smooth and add salt and pepper. Set aside, keeping warm or at room temperature.

In a bowl, mix veal, egg, bread crumbs and rosemary. Season generously.

Shape small meatballs by coating the diced cheese with the meat mixture; cheese should be entirely coated.

Arrange meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place on top oven rack; cook 8 to 10 minutes or until golden and fully cooked. Warning: do not overcook as cheese will melt and seep away.

Serve warm, with the cranberry sauce as dip.

Makes 8 servings.
