Sweet and Sour Meatballs


1 lb. ground beef
1 egg
1/2 onion, chopped finely
1 cup dry bread crumbs
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup water
½ cup cider vinegar (i used rice vinegar, it was fine)
½ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce

In a large bowl, combine beef, egg, onion, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Roll into meatballs about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in size.
In a large skillet over medium heat, saute the meatballs until browned on all sides.
In a separate medium bowl, mix together the water, vinegar, ketchup, cornstarch, sugar and soy sauce. Pour over the meatballs, and allow sauce to thicken. Continue to heat until the sauce just starts to bubble. Serve over rice. Makes 12-14 meatballs.

When I reheated the leftovers, I added sauteed green pepper strips, sliced red onions and pineapple. I definitely recommend this!
