      I really liked the flavor the wine gave to the meat. It was delicious even though I forgot the cheese. For the sauce however, I used a few cans of diced tomatoes and a can of tomato sauce. I also added a little more cinnamon and simmered it uncovered for a longer time in order for the sauce to thicken. I served it over noodles with additional parmesano regianno cheese. YUM!

      I made my meatballs using ground beef,parmesan and crushed tomatoes for the sause. Meatballs are very delicate and difficult to turn when frying ,they are easily fall apart. I made these meatballs in hope they would taste like the ones we had in Athens 2 weeks ago but they didn't. They were not bad but just did not taste autentically Greek.

      These are delicious! I served them first time around with oven fries and the leftovers were warmed up later in the week to serve over spaghetti. A very versatile recipe!

      I tried pan-frying them and had a lot of trouble with the meatballs sticking to the pan and falling apart when I tried to turn them. If I make these again, I will try baking them and see if that turns out better.

      These are so good! The taste and aroma was exactly as I remember it from my daughter's mother-in-law's kitchen in Athens. Makes plenty for a second meal for us. I made them exactly as written with ground beef. Thanks Evelyn!

      Made this for my parents' visit. Absolutely gorgeous! After browning I baked in a tagine on a very low heat, with chickpeas and spinach. My parents have taken a copy of the recipe with them as they enjoyed it so much!

      I made the meatballs in the oven instead of frying them. They were still good and a lot healthier for the dish. The sauce was just a bit too heavy for us but for the most part the guests I served this to, really liked this dish.

      5 stars for the sauce - I used it to drizzle over rice that I served as a side for your souvlaki. I can get kefalograviera and/or mizithra cheese easily since I live in a Greek community, but I didn't go out today and just used parm to garnish, which was fine. Your Greek recipes rock!

      EXCELLENT FLAVORFUL MEATBALLS cooked A La GREEK! Mine were a bit dense though as I was a bit LAZY and added Breadcrumbs. This is a KEEPER and I'll add to my everyday GREEK CUISINE (and I'll learn to follow directions, next time!) TWO THUMBS UP~ EV, you did it again!

      Superb, tender, mildly flavored, melt-in-your-mouth meatballs. I LOVED these and their sauce. Only change I made was to use 1 T each of the olive and vegetable oils. We enjoyed it over whole wheat pasta. Ten star recipe!

      Very good. The flavor of the meatballs was especially good - I really enjoyed the wine in this, as it permeates the taste of the meatballs. I found the amount of oil to be a bit more than I think was necessary. I cut down a little, but would use even less next time. The sauce was also good, but not as flavorful as I had expected. I would certainly make these again. Thanks for sharing.
