Serves: 6 person(s)

Preparation Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time: 30 mins

Yield: 6 x 1 large meatball servings

Fun for kids to make - and eat too! These meatballs are oversized and cook easily in the oven.

Ingredients:

0.45 kg extra lean ground pork

1 Tbsp onion flakes

3/4 cup crushed corn flakes

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 egg

1/4 cup ketchup

3 Tbsp brown sugar

1 tsp dry mustard

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375ºF.

In a large bowl, combine ground pork, onion flakes, corn flakes, salt, pepper and egg. In a small bowl stir together ketchup, brown sugar and dry mustard. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the ketchup mixture into the pork and mix well.

Spray muffin tin with vegetable cooking spray. Form 6 meatballs and place in muffin tin. Coat the top of each meatball with the remaining ketchup mixture.

Bake for 30 minutes in preheated oven, until nicely browned and glazed.

Variations:

Steamed green beans and either potato wedges or scalloped potatoes make the meal complete (see recipes below).

To lower the sugar content, omit the brown sugar.
