Until the end of July 2013 there is a great Tapas route  going on in Santa Cruz de Tenerife called Soho Tapas Route.

Tasca El Callejón is taking part in this gastro challenge with a great tapa and I also got the full recipe by Chef Sebastián Morales, “Chano”, so let’s get all the ingredients to make it at home.

Meatballs with goat cheese recipe

• Meatballs Ingredients:

  • Yearly calf minced meat – 1 kg
  • onion – 1
  • garlic – 2 tsp
  • cumin powder- 2tsp ( depending on your taste)
  • mustard – like the one you use for hot-dogs
  • black pepper powder
  • eggs – 2
  • salt
  • breadcrumbs

• Goat cheese sauce ingredients:

  • cream – 1/2 l
  • grated mature goat cheese – 1/2 l
  • Black pepper in powder
  • salt
  • oregano – 200gr.

• Meatballs preparation:

  • In a pan with olive oil we stirfry the onion, garlic and other spices, once done we mix it with the minced meat and we wait till it’s cold enough.
  • Add 2 eggs and the mustard, then mix it with your hands.
  • Make the meatballs and roll them with breadcrumbs and fry.

• Goat Cheese sauce preparation:

  • Boil the cream and reserve.
  • Add the cheese and spices.
  • Mix well.

You can present the dish as  in the picture .  Have a cool Tinto de Verano with it. But if you order this tapa you can also have a glass of beer of house wine during the SOHO tapas route for as little as 2,5o€

Good apetite
