These were absolutely delicious! I added garlic powder, vegeta, onion salt, , double the garlic to the meat mix and also seasoned the soup and crushed tomatoes with herbs and garlic salt because I love ALL the garlic! Will definitely make these again!

To cook through regular meatballs they’d only need more like 4hrs, but these have rice in them, hence the high volume of liquids in the sauce. You wouldn’t need so much if you used store bought with no rice in them π

If I used store bought meatballs would the cooking time be the same?

Made these today , they were ready in 6 hours. The rice cooked through, they stayed in shape, I should have turned them over after a few hours as the bottom of some of them were a bit burnt. They tasted good but the sauce was a bit too rich for me.

You could, it would just have a different consistency and more acidic like tomatoes than creamy like soup π You could also do the tomatoes then maybe stir through some cream at the end?

I wonder instead of using tomato soup could you use pasta sauce?

Can never get the rice to soften- whatβs the secret! Your rice if choice in this recipe?
Thanks!

Mince is just what you would call ground beef. So yes you could make with turkey instead. Or chicken too

Made these,last night. Did double batch as feeding men. Taste was just like the ones mum made many years ago. They even stayed as balls! Will use more soup next time, as boys like the sauce. Will be making again. Yum!!

Made these for the first time in the slow cooker. Have had them before done in the oven. I much prefer the SC! So delicious, I would only add a little curry powder to the mince next time to boost flavour of the mince. Will make again π

Didnt add full amount of rice as stated in recipe, i added garlic granules to the sauce mix and its a big hit in this house great on pasta or served with garlic bread and a salad

These were great! So easy and recipe fed 5 of us with left overs for another night!
Only thing Iβd change is the sauce was a bit rich (I used condensed soup so that may be why…..) so next time Iβll play around with that. Maybe 1 tin of soup, 2 tins tomatoes.
