Spicy Moroccan-Style Meatballs Recipe
By Fat Cat Gourmet
Cook time:
6 hours (slow cooker time)
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground fennel
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 tsp salt
- 1-2 tablespoons Fat Cat "Cat in Heat" Chipotle-Ghost Pepper Blend (depending on desired heat level)
- 2 14 oz. cans of fire roasted tomatoes
- 2 lbs frozen meatballs (regular style or Swedish-style, not Italian-Style)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients except the meatballs and Fat Cat "Cat in Heat" Chipotle-Ghost Pepper Blend in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Blend in one tablespoon of Fat Cat "Cat in Heat" Chipotle-Ghost Pepper Blend into the mixture and taste for spice-level. Add another tablespoon to the mixture if more spice is desired.
- Pour mixture into a slow cooker, add meatballs, stir to coat evenly, cover and set cooker to low for 6 hours. (Alternately, you can place everything in a heavy-bottomed pot and set it to simmer on your range for 90 min.)
Notes
Add another tablespoon of "Cat in Heat" Chipotle-Ghost Pepper Blend at the end of the cooking process to add even more spice.A vegetarian or vegan version of this can be made by substituting meatless meatballs for the regular meatballs.
