A favorite recipe from my mother-in-law. Serve over couscous with sour cream.Ingredients | Beef Mince Recipes South Africa
2 pounds leeks, trimmed and outer leaves removed
1 pound ground beef
1 cup white bread crumbs
2 eggs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
¾ cup water, or as needed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter
Directions
Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add leeks; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain; transfer to a plate to cool. Chop leeks finely with a sharp knife, or in a food processor.
Combine leeks, ground beef, bread crumbs, and eggs in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Mix until combined; shape with hands into walnut-sized meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs, turning as needed, until evenly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Add water, lemon juice, and butter; bring to a boil. Simmer, covered, until meatballs are no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes.
