Grandma Naclerio'S Meatballs(Serving Size - Adaptable) - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 lb. ground chuck
2 eggs
Salt and pepper to taste
Powdered garlic to taste
Instant parsley - enough to distribute throughout meat
Grated cheese to taste (Parmesan & Romano 50/50 mix)
Bread crumbs
Preparation
-
The above is the basic recipe and can be doubled or tripled according to need as long as the increase is in proportion to the above.
Mix ingredients together.
To be sure the mix is properly balanced, roll a meat ball and if it comes away from your hand but feels sticky and holds together, the bread crumb/egg balance is correct.
Meat balls may be fried and then put in marinara sauce or fried and marinara sauce poured over them, or cooked in the marinara sauce, or eaten as is.
Can also be made very small for hors d'oeuvres.
(See recipe for marinara sauce under 'soups, salads and sauces'.)
Serving size is adaptable.
