Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meatball Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, ground veal, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Meatballs

    Shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on a baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Cook the Meatballs

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Sauces

    While the meatballs are cooking, prepare the spicy tomato sauce and romesco sauce according to your preferred recipes or use store-bought versions.

  5. 5

    Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the spicy tomato sauce. Serve hot with a drizzle of romesco sauce on top.
