| 1. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together in the tagine, cover and let simmer gently over a medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. | 2. Meanwhile, use your hands to mix the ingredients for the meatballs together and then roll the meat into small balls, about 1 inch round. | 3. After the tomatoes have simmered for about 15 minutes, stir the sauce and add a little water if you feel it is needed. | 4. Place the meatballs in the sauce. | 5. Do not stir but just let them sit on top of the sauce. | 6. Lower the heat, cover and cook for another 8-10 minutes. Uncover and let simmer another couple minutes if you feel the sauce needs thickening. | 7. Serve with lots of crusty bread for dipping in the sauce or over spaghetti with parmesan cheese on top. | 8. If you want to make these ahead of time and freeze them, leave the parsley out and place the meatballs in a rigid container like a tupperware dish before freezing. | 9. To reheat, thaw in the fridge (you can do this overnight) and reheat on the stovetop over medium-low until bubbly. Add chopped parsley before serving. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
