ingredients

1 lb lean ground beef
2 tablespoons onions, chopped
¹⁄₂ cup breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic salt (or 1 clove minced)
¹⁄₈ teaspoon ground pepper
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
¹⁄₂ teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Sweet and Sour Sauce
¹⁄₄ cup sugar
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cornstarch
¹⁄₄ cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple slices, juice

directions

Combine all meatball ingredients except the vegetable oil and form into balls.
Pan fry meatballs in 2 tbsps oil or bake at 350 degree oven until browned and cooked thoroughly.
Set meatballs aside, covered with tin foil.
Make the sweet and sour sauce by mixing sugar, salt and cornstarch in a fairly large pot. Add vinegar, soy sauce and pineapple juice. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly until desired thickness.
Cut up pineapple slices into bite size pieces. (I use sliced pineapple instead of pineapple tidbits because I seem to get more juice). Add pineapple and meatballs to sweet and sour sauce. Heat through and serve over buttered egg noodles or rice. These make nice appetizers too.
