I want to cook beef meatballs - not in too much sauce?

[youknowme1]

i was watching Goodfellas, a film the other day and thought i would eat something different. so i bought some beef meatballs. in the film they made meatballs in a stew - but i dont want it like that. I will make a bit of sauce myself and i know how to do that.

I want to no how to best cook the meatballs so they are properly cooked. I read i could bake them first for 30 mins then fry on a low heat for 20 mins or so. Is this ok?
