Sauce

Recipe

1. Chop the mushrooms and Onion super fine, almost to a paste. If you've got a food processor use it.

2. Mix the finely chopped onion and mushrooms with the mince. Season with salt and paprika.

3. Knead the mixture well. Roll balls from the mixture. (Don't make them to big they wont cook.)

4. Grill the meatballs until well browned.

5. Transfer meatballs to a heatproof dish. One layer thick So that the sauce will cover them.
