+![Cheesy Meatballs with Tomato Sauce](meatballs.jpg)
+
+This recipe is a little bit more elaborate than the other ones I've posted, but
+it's still worth the time and effort to prepare. Nothing beats meat, cheese and
+tomato combined together to create the best combination of flavors that man has
+created.

+
+## Ingredients
+
+The quantities here are for about two adult portions. That is, if you are also
+making some side dish, like in the photo.
+
+For the meatballs:
+
+* 300-400g of ground beef meat
+* 1/4 of an onion
+* ~70g of cheese; I have made with different cheese types, but usually I use
+ Gouda
+* Parsley
+* 1-2 garlic cloves
+* 1 egg
+* ~1/5 metric cups (~50ml) of bread crumbs
+* Salt
+
+For the sauce:
+
+* 250ml of water
+* 8 spoonfuls of tomato paste
+* Oregano
+* Basil
+* Black pepper
+* Salt
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. In a large bowl beat the egg(s)
+2. Add in the ground beef, and the bread crumbs and mix.
+3. Chop the onion into small pieces and add it to the bowl.
+4. Mince the garlic cloves and add to the bowl.
+5. Dice the parsley leaves and add to the bowl.
+6. Salt the beef mix and mix it thoroughly.
+7. Cut the cheese into cubes. The amount of cubes you will need will depend on
+ how many meatballs you make, which depends on how big you want to make the
+ meatballs. You get the idea.
+8. Take a cheese cube and wrap with enough ground meat to completely cover it.
+ Repeat this process until you've run out of the ground beef mix.
+9. Heat the frying pan, add some olive oil, and add the meatballs. Cook over
+ medium heat rolling the meatballs from time to time until they are slightly
+ brown from all sides (wait, spheres have no sides).
+10. When the meatballs look done, pour the water and tomato paste; add the dried
+ oregano and basil, and ground black pepper; and salt to taste.
+11. Cook over medium-low heat for about ten minutes rolling the meatballs so
+ that they get completely bathed in tomato sauce.
+12. Serve with some side dish and enjoy!
