New Mama'S Meatballs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 lbs ground veal (OR 1 pound each, pork, beef and veal; OR Whatever combination of ground meat you want to use.)
    1/4 cup minced shallot
    1 teaspoon minced garlic
    1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
    2 teaspoons salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    1 egg
    1 cup breadcrumbs (I used the canned stuff)
    1/2 cup whole milk
    1/3 cup grated or powdered parmesan cheese
Preparation
    You will also need: thin latex gloves (optional).
    Preheat oven to 375, spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside.
    Combine meat, shallots, garlic, basil, salt, pepper, nutmeg, egg, bread crumbs, milk and parmesan in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
    I wear thin latex gloves because I can really mix the ingredients and shape the meatballs without getting it under my fingernails.
    Scoop up 1/4 cup sized portions and shape into 1/2 inch balls.
    Place meatballs, spaced apart on baking sheet.
    Bake in preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until browned and cooked through (160 degrees in centers).
    Do not overcook.
    Add to pasta sauce or sweet and sour sauce or brown gravy.
    Very delicious.
