MEATBALLS: Combine all the meatball ingredients, except the oil, and mix
well. Form into 1 1/2-inch balls. Brown the meatballs in the oil,
remove, and keep warm.
SAUCE: To make the sauce, add the oil to the pan and saute the onion and
garlic until soft. Add the remaining sauce ingredients, bring to a boil,
reduce the heat, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the sauce is
thickened. Place the sauce in a blender or food processor and puree
until smooth. Return the sauce to the pan, add the meatballs, and heat
through.
TORTILLA CUPS: To make the tortilla cups, pour the oil to a depth of 3
inches and heat to 375F. Place a tortilla in the oil and let it float
for a couple of seconds. Press the center into the oil with a can or
ladle to form a bowl and fry until crisp, remove, and drain. To serve,
place the lettuce in each of the tortilla cups, top with the albondigas,
and serve.
