Italian Meatballs with Caponata

These meatballs made from high-quality minced beef are pure in flavour and seasoned Italian-style with sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil. The caponata pairs beautifully with the meatballs. I prepare this traditional Sicilian vegetable dish according to a classic recipe with aubergine, good olives, capers, and tomatoes. On the side, I serve a light mashed potato with roasted garlic. Enjoy!
