- Nutmeg. to taste

- ✔Tomato sauce:. l
- medium chopped onion1 unit(s)
- Peeled Tomatoes1 can(s)
- Olive oil. to taste
- Salt and pepper. to taste
- Place the peeled potatoes in a pan, cover with water and bring to the boil to cook until soft.
- ✔ Meatballs: Mix all the ingredients except the breadcrumbs.
- After mixing the ingredients well and obtaining a homogeneous mass, gradually add the breadcrumbs as needed.
- The amount varies depending on the moisture of the meat and other factors.
- Add just enough to get a moldable mixture.
- Divide the mixture into 7 or 8 parts, form a ball and flatten slightly.
- With your thumb, press the center to make a cavity that will then receive the puree.
- Place the meatballs in the fridge while you prepare the rest.
- ✔ Puree: Discard the cooking water and mash the potatoes well.
- Add the butter and cream and mix well.
- The idea of this step is to obtain a puree with creaminess, but slightly firm.
- If necessary add a little more cream.
- Season with salt and nutmeg and set aside to cool slightly. Reserve to cool.
- ✔Tomato Sauce: Heat a frying pan, add oil, onions and sauté.
- Mash the peeled tomatoes and place in the frying pan, add salt and let it boil to thicken the sauce, add a little water if necessary. Season with pepper and set aside.
- ✔Assembly: Take the meatballs from the fridge, with a spoon or using a pastry bag/tube, generously fill the cavity with the puree.
- Place the tomato sauce on the bottom of a platter, place the meatballs and bake in a heated oven at 200C for approximately 30 minutes.
- To make my puree look beautiful, I used this tube with a Pitanga pastry nozzle, I found it in a supermarket here in Porto Alegre, it is practical to wash and easier to use than a pastry bag.
- Remembering that you can accommodate the puree with a spoon, be sure to make this delicious recipe.
