Spanish Albondigas 15Mar09

Albondigas Spanish Style

I had some friends over for dinner the yesterday and I decided to do Spanish tapas. I started with a list of about 12 dishes and decided that might be too much for 4 people. I ended up with 6 dishes and this was one of them. I made them again today :)

Albondigas are Spanish meatballs. There’s a few different varieties, Mexican albondigas are usually cooked and served in a soup or stew with heaps of vegetables. They may or may not be in a tomato based soup either. Spanish albondigas are cooked in a thick tomato sauce. I made the Spanish kind since it was a Spanish tapas night!

Ground Support

My local favorite is currently Ground Support in SOHO. I go there almost every day for a smooth creamy soy cappuccino or if it’s hot out an iced soy latte. When I’m not in a hurry to run out, I try to take a few extra minutes to enjoy the coffee in the shop… you know, chat with the staff, catch up on some calls and best of all… people watch. Always some interesting characters in NYC!
