Ingredients
- 1-1/2 lbs lean ground beef
- 1 cup uncooked bulgur fine or medium
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 egg
- Salt if desired, to taste
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp oregano
- 1 13- ounce can about 1-2/3 cups tomato juice
Instructions
- Combine thoroughly the beef, bulgur, onion, egg, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and oregano. Shape the mixture into balls of desired size (smaller ones tend to hold together better).
- Grease a nonstick or heavy skillet that has a tight cover, and in it brown the meatballs on all sides. Add the juice to the skillet, bring it to a boil, reduce the heat, cover the pan, and simmer the meatballs for 1 hour.
