Real Italian Meatballs

Real Italian Meatballs


1. Heat the milk in a pot until steamy, turn off the heat and tear the bread into small pieces and soak in the milk . Mash it until it resembles a paste. Put it on a plate and let cool, set aside.

2. In a large bowl combine beef, pork,ricotta cheese, grated parmesan, eggs,salt,parsley,oregano,black pepper,garlic cloves and the milk/bread mixture. mix with your hands until it's barely combined! Do not over work the mixture or they will be tough.

3. Wet your hands and form meatballs, they should be about -3 inches across! But you can make them any size you want! Set each one on a oiled plate or wax paper while your making all the others.

4. When the meatballs are formed, heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Brown on at least 2 sides, I like trying to brown as many sides as possible.

5. Now they are ready tto add to the sauce or use as you please.
