Patricia's Sweet N Sour Meatballs
This is a recipe my host mum and dad in New Zealand prepared for us for dinner. Delish! They taste even better the second day. In my opinion, they are more sweet than sweet and sour, but still very good. The original recipe also called for 2 T black sauce, but I had no idea what that ingredient actually was, so I left it out. Prep and cooking time is approximate.
