Directions

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Grease an oven-safe pan with vegetable oil. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients of the meatball except the walnuts. Using your hands, mix until fully combined. Using a scoop portion out of the mixture, place a walnut in the middle. Press meat around the walnut, fully enclosing it. Repeat until all meat is used. Brush meatballs with some vegetable oil and bake for 20 minutes.
Soak cranberries for 1 hour or more, then drain them. In a medium saucepan, add olive oil, chopped onion, and crushed garlic. Saute for several minutes, then add the drained cranberries and other ingredients and cook over medium heat. Allow the sauce to simmer until nice and thick.
Pour half of the sauce on the meatballs and bake for 10 minutes. Serve the meatballs with the rest of the sauce.
