How To Make spanish meatballs

Step 1

In a small saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Saute the onion and bell pepper until soft, about 10 minutes. Combine the meat with the sauteed onion and pepper, the egg, the breadcrumbs, and salt, pepper and paprika. With wet hands, form the meat into small balls. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a saute pan and cook the meatballs until browned on all sides and cooked through. Serve with toothpicks, or a simple tomato sauce for dipping and crusty bread for mopping everything up.
