SUPER TENDER ITALIAN MEATBALLS



Super Tender Italian Meatballs image

Super Tender Italian Meatballs. Loaded with Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley and garlic. They melt in your mouth and are incredibly tender. Takes less than 30 minutes to make!

Provided by Kelley Simmons

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup milk
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 cups bread (cubed (I used a day old baguette))
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon parsley (chopped)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
Slow Cooker Tomato Sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine milk and lemon juice in a small bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes. You will see curds at the top.
  • Add bread to a small bowl and pour the buttermilk over the bread. Allow the bread to soak up all the milk and mix a little with your hands. Add the bread mixture to a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile add olive oil to a small skillet. Add in onion and sauté until tender about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add in garlic and sauté for one minute.
  • Add onion and garlic to the bowl with the bread along with the beef, pork, cheese, eggs, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
  • Combine the mixture using your hands just until combined. Try not to over work the meatballs. The mixture will be wet. Let stand for a couple of minutes before rolling.
  • Roll out 16 meatballs. I make them the size of golf balls.
  • Drizzle a skillet with olive oil. Over high heat sear the meatballs on all sides to brown. About 1-2 minutes on each side. (If meatball sticks to the pan give it more time before flipping). Also be careful when flipping meatballs they are pretty fragile.
  • Place meatballs on a baking sheet and cook for 10 minutes. They will be slightly undercooked on the inside but they will continue to cook as they come out of the oven. If this is an issue leave in the oven for longer (5 minutes) or simmer in tomato sauce for a few minutes.
  • Serve the meatballs immediately with your favorite tomato sauce and pasta.

THE BEST MEATBALLS



The Best Meatballs image

I never knew how to make good meatballs until I found this recipe. I normally make mine with just ground beef and they still taste great. I've used the combination of pork, beef and veal and they are equally good. Definitely use fresh bread crumbs and freshly grate your cheese instead of using the canned variety...it really does make a difference.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound ground beef
½ pound ground veal
½ pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
1 cup freshly grated Romano cheese
1 ½ tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups stale Italian bread, crumbled
1 ½ cups lukewarm water
1 cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper.
  • Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape if rolled into meatballs. (I usually use about 1 1/4 cups of water). Shape into meatballs.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. When the meatball is very brown and slightly crisp remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. (If your mixture is too wet, cover the meatballs while they are cooking so that they hold their shape better.)

GRANDMA'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS AND GRAVY



Grandma's Swedish Meatballs and Gravy image

This Swedish meatballs recipe has been passed down from a Swedish grandmother to her beautiful granddaughter. They are the best Swedish meatballs I've ever tasted! Even better than Ikea®! Easy to make, full of flavor, swimming in the most amazing creamy gravy sauce!

Provided by JACANA

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 24

½ cup milk
⅓ cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon heavy cream
1 large egg
1 large clove garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
1 pound ground beef
½ pound ground pork
½ medium onion, minced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon salted butter
2 teaspoons olive oil
⅓ cup salted butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup vegetable broth
1 cup beef broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Mix milk, bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon cream, egg, garlic, salt, black pepper, white pepper, and allspice together in a large bowl. Set aside to soak until bread crumbs have absorbed the milk, at least 10 minutes.
  • Mix in beef, pork, onion, and parsley, using your hands to mix until well combined. Roll into about 24 small meatballs or 16 larger meatballs.
  • Heat butter and oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Fry meatballs in small batches until cooked through and browned on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Transfer to a warm plate and cover with foil.
  • Add butter for gravy sauce to the pan juices. Melt over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook and whisk until flour dissolves and turns brown, about 5 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth, beef broth, cream, soy sauce, and Dijon. Bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine all of the flavors together. Continue to simmer until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add meatballs to the gravy. Toss gently to coat and serve.

Tips:

  • Don't overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing can make the meatballs tough.
  • Use a large skillet to brown the meatballs. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when browning the meatballs. If you overcrowd the skillet, the meatballs will steam instead of brown.
  • Make sure the meatballs are cooked all the way through before adding them to the gravy.
  • Use a good quality buttermilk for the gravy. This will give the gravy a rich and creamy flavor.
  • Don't let the gravy boil. Boiling will cause the gravy to curdle.
  • Serve the meatballs and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Conclusion:

Meatballs with buttermilk gravy is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a hit with family and friends. The meatballs are juicy and flavorful, and the gravy is rich and creamy. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner.
