Meatballs With Sage & Marsala image

I have used Thyme rather than Sage in the past and it was just as good. This is an easy recipe with AMAZING results. Its perfect for company and quite impressive. You can use ground Turkey rather than Veal if you like. I don't know where I got this from. The cooking & prep times are just guesses. Serve this as a main dish with pasta, risotto, rice or potatoes as a side or part of a larger Italian meal after the Pasta course with a steamed vegetable on the side. Make sure you have some bread for cleaning that plate!

  • Chop half the sage leaves and add them to the meat mixture.
  • Form into walnut sized balls and fry them in the butter until golden.
  • Add the Marsala and let it cook down until it begins to thicken.
  • Chop remaining sage and add to the sauce.

  • Add cream and stir to combine, cooking for a few minutes longer until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  • They can cook gently for hours if need be.

These meatballs were a little too salty for my taste. I think I might try reducing the amount of salt next time.

These meatballs were a little bland for my taste. I think I might try adding some more spices next time.

I made these meatballs for my Italian grandmother and she said they were the best she had ever had. That's a pretty high compliment!

These meatballs were a little too dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some more liquid to the sauce next time.
