How to Make Sweet and Sour Meatballs

Meatballs are so simple to make and are even good on those nights when you dread cooking. They take little effort but are worth what they do take. Have a peek of these four steps and head on into the kitchen to whip up a batch. 

First Step: Place the oven racks, so they are located in the upper-middle and lower-middle positions—Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Second Step: Mash the slices of bread, milk, and egg yolks with a fork until smooth in a medium-sized bowl. Mix in the pork, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper until combined. Then mix in the ground beef until mixed well. 

Third Step: Roll the meat mixture into 1¼-inch meatballs. Put the meatballs on a rimmed baking sheet. Using two rimmed baking sheets, bake them until they are cooked through and beginning to brown, 12 to 15 minutes, switching and rotating sheets halfway through cooking.

Fourth Step: During the time the meatballs are baking, warm the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add in the onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in the tomato sauce, apricot preserves, sugar, Worcestershire, mustard, and pepper flakes and bring to boil. Turn the heat to medium-low and allow it to simmer until the sauce has thickened about 15 minutes. Put the cooked in the pan and simmer until 5-10 minutes.
