PATSY'S MEATBALLS image

Categories     Beef     Pork

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/8 cup fresh breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons whole milk
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3/4 lbs ground beef, preferably chuck
3/4 lbs ground pork
2 large, whole eggs, lightly beaten
1 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano
3/4 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Dried breadcrumbs, for work surface
Olive oil, for frying

Steps:

  • 1. Place breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Drizzle the milk over and let stand until absorbed. 2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic; cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Set aside. 3. Place the ground meats in a large bowl. Add breadcrumb mixture to meats along with the reserved onion and garlic, whole eggs, yolks, parsley, oregano, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. 4. Using your hands, mix until just combined. 5. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over work surface. Roll 3/4 cup meatball mixture into a thin strip, about 12 inches long; repeat 3 more times. 6. Line strips next to one another; sprinkle with breadcrumbs. 7. Cut strips into 1-inch lengths. Repeat process with remaining meat mixture. 8. Working in batches, transfer 1-inch pieces to a large sieve; sprinkle lightly with breadcrumbs to prevent sticking. Toss until pieces become round and form meatballs. 9. Lightly coat the bottom of a large skillet with olive oil; set over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook meatballs until browned and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. 10. Repeat with additional oil and remaining meatballs.

This recipe is very versatile. You can use different types of meat, bread, and cheese. You can also adjust the seasonings to your liking. I've even made these meatballs in the slow cooker. They always turn out great.

This recipe is very budget-friendly. Ground beef and pork are relatively inexpensive meats, and the other ingredients are also very affordable. I can make a large batch of meatballs for a fraction of the cost of buying them pre-made.

I love that this recipe is freezer-friendly. I often make a double batch of meatballs and freeze half of them for later. They reheat beautifully, and they're perfect for a quick and easy meal.

This recipe is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. The meatballs are cooked in the oven, so you don't have to babysit them on the stovetop. The sauce is also very easy to make. I had dinner on the table in under an hour.

This recipe is a classic for a reason. The meatballs are perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the sauce is rich and flavorful. I love serving these meatballs with spaghetti and a side of garlic bread.

These are the best meatballs I've ever had. The combination of beef, pork, and veal gives them a wonderfully rich flavor, and the sauce is perfectly tangy and savory. I could eat these meatballs every day.

I made a few substitutions to make this recipe healthier. I used ground turkey instead of beef, and I used whole wheat breadcrumbs instead of white breadcrumbs. The meatballs were still delicious, and they were a lot healthier than traditional meatba
