Preparation

What You Need


Sauce:
1/2 cup (125 ml) cranberry juice
1/2 cup (125 ml) cranberries, fresh or frozen
3 tbsp (45 ml) maple syrup
Salt
Ground pepper, to taste

Meatballs:
1 lb (454 g) ground lean veal
1 egg, beaten
1 Slice of whole wheat bread, crumbled
2 tsp (10 ml) fresh rosemary, chopped
5 oz (150 g) Medium Cheddar block, diced in ¼” (0.75 cm) cubes

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).

In a small skillet, bring cranberry juice and fruit to a boil along with maple syrup. Cook 8-10 minutes.

Purée cranberries until smooth and add salt and pepper. Set aside, keeping warm or at room temperature.

In a bowl, mix veal, egg, bread crumbs and rosemary. Season generously.

Shape small meatballs by coating the diced cheese with the meat mixture; cheese should be entirely coated.

Arrange meatballs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and place on top oven rack; cook 8-10 minutes or until golden and fully cooked. Warning: do not overcook as cheese will melt and seep away.

Serve warm, with the cranberry sauce as dip.
