Time 30m

Yield 6 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup toasted almonds or walnuts
2 cloves garlic
1 cup panko breadcrumbs or matzo meal
1 cup shredded Parmesan, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons dried parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs
3 1/2 cups (28 ounces) tomato sauce of your choice
Flavorless oil, like canola or vegetable, for frying
12 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 bunch fresh basil leaves
6 slider rolls, toasted
Chopped fresh parsley or basil, for serving

Steps:

  • In a food processor, combine the nuts and garlic and pulse to a coarse crumb. Add the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley, salt and a few turns of pepper and pulse to combine. Add the eggs and process until the mixture holds together in a ball. Roll 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls, packing just firmly enough so they hold together but not so much that they toughen. Put the balls on a plate or sheet of parchment paper.
  • Warm the tomato sauce in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the balls in batches, turning until they're golden brown on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, you can deep fry the suckers if that's what you're into.) Add the balls to the tomato sauce.
  • Put 1 slice of mozzarella, 2 balls and 1 basil leaf on the bottom of each roll. Top with the top of the slider bun and serve with additional marinara sauce and chopped parsley or basil on the side.

These sliders were a disaster! The meatballs were burnt and the cranberry sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I would not recommend this recipe. The meatballs were bland and the cranberry sauce was too sweet.

These sliders were just okay. I wasn't really impressed with the flavor of the meatballs or the cranberry sauce.

The cranberry sauce was a bit too tart. I think I would have used a sweeter sauce.

The meatballs were a bit dry. I think I would have added more moisture to the mixture.

These sliders were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them without the cranberry sauce.

I was a bit hesitant to try these meatballs because I'm not a big fan of cranberry sauce. But I'm so glad I did! The cranberry sauce added a delicious tanginess to the meatballs that I loved. I'll definitely be making these again.
