Ultimate Meatball Recipe
Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground veal
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1 cup freshly grated Romano cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups stale Italian bread, crumbled
  • 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
  • 1 cup olive oil
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary components for the dish.
2
Combine beef, veal, and pork in a substantial container. Blend these meats with cheese, eggs, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper to create a cohesive mixture.
3
Gradually incorporate bread crumbs into the meat mixture. Then, introduce water in small increments, 1/2 cup at a time, until the mixture reaches an optimal consistency - moist yet retaining its structural integrity. Typically, this equates to approximately 1 1/4 cups of water; shape the mixture into meatballs.
4
Heat olive oil in a substantial cooking vessel. Introduce the meatballs in batches and cook until they are uniformly browned on all sides, slightly crispy, and fully cooked through, taking around 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the meatballs from heat and allow them to drain on paper towels.
