Categories     Dinner

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb. ground beef ((I used 93% lean))
½ cup uncooked long grain white rice
1 egg, lightly beaten
¼ cup grated or finely minced onion
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley ((or 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes))
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (10.75 oz) can condensed tomato soup, not diluted
1 soup can of water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground beef, uncooked rice, egg, onion, parsley, salt, and pepper. Shape into 1-inch balls.
  • Place the meatballs in the prepared baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together tomato soup and water. Pour soup mixture over the meatballs.
  • Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Remove cover and continue baking for 30 more minutes. At this point, the meatballs should be cooked through and the rice inside the meatballs should be tender. If the rice is still crunchy, cover loosely with foil and return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes (or until rice is done).

These well-seasoned porcupine meatballs in a rich tomato sauce are one of my mom's best main dishes. I used to love this meal when I was growing up. I made it at home for our children, and now my daughters make it for their families. -Darlis Wilfer, West Bend, Wisconsin

This is, by far, the best recipe for porcupine meatballs I have ever had. This is a recipe that was given to my mom when she married back in 1970. The recipe also includes cooking directions for stovetop cooking or cooking in the oven. Hope you enjoy as much as our family does.
