Meatball Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatballs

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, egg, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs, about 2.5 cm in diameter.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add meatballs and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a separate saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced yellow tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and fresh basil. Cook for about 15 minutes until the tomatoes break down into a sauce.

  5. 5

    Combine

    Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the yellow tomato sauce and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the meatballs topped with straciatella cheese.
