About Hake meatballs in tomato sauce

Hake meatballs in tomato sauce is a flavorful dish combining tender fish meatballs with a rich, tangy tomato-based sauce. Typically rooted in Mediterranean or Spanish cuisine, this dish uses mild white hake fish, breadcrumbs, eggs, garlic, parsley, and spices to form the meatballs, delivering a delicate yet savory flavor. The tomato sauce often includes olive oil, onions, spices, and ripe tomatoes, enhancing its vibrant taste. Hake is a lean source of protein, rich in omega-3 fatty acids and essential vitamins like B12, while tomatoes provide antioxidants like lycopene and vitamin C. The dish is relatively low in saturated fat, especially when baked or simmered rather than fried. However, its healthiness can vary depending on preparation—high amounts of oil or salt can add extra calories and sodium. Served with whole-grain sides or steamed vegetables, this dish can be part of a balanced, nutritious meal.
