Cranberry Glazed Meatballs

Finely chop the onion and garlic. In a bowl, combine the minced meat, onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, and paprika. Shape into small meatballs.

Sear the meatballs in oil on all sides until nicely browned. Transfer them to a saucepan.

For the sauce: in a saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar, honey, orange juice and zest, and grated ginger. Bring to a boil, then simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the cranberries burst.

Optionally, blend the sauce until smooth.

Stir in the dissolved starch, mix well, and cook for another 1–2 minutes until thickened.
