Meatball Ingredients
Method
Meatball Preparation
Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped parsley, beaten eggs, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.
Form the Meatballs
Using your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs, approximately 1.5 inches in diameter.
Cook the Meatballs
In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and cook the meatballs in batches, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 10-12 minutes.
Prepare the Ricotta
While the meatballs are cooking, scoop the ricotta cheese into a serving bowl and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Serve
Once the meatballs are cooked, serve them hot alongside the ricotta cheese for dipping or topping.
