More Info

These meatballs are known as albóndigas in Mexico, and the rich, smoky sauce flavoured with chipotle, ancho chillies, cinnamon and allspice makes a fabulous dish with rice, beans and salad (or even better stuffed inside bread rolls with extra cheese to make a Mexican sandwich known as torta de albóndigas!)
