Meatballs

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the meatball mixture

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

2

Form the meatballs

Using your hands, shape the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.

3

Cook the meatballs

In a large skillet over medium heat, add a little olive oil and cook the meatballs in batches until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

4

Prepare the Pomodoro sauce

While the meatballs cook, prepare the house pomodoro sauce by simmering crushed tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, basil, and salt in a saucepan for about 15 minutes.

5

Serve

Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the pomodoro sauce to coat. Serve warm.
