Meatballs

Meat balls are a very versatile dish, This can be used in different ways. I prefer baking them because that retains the moisture and softness more.

Any ground meat - 1lb [i prefer 80% lean beef]

eggs - 1

breadcrumbs - 1/2 cup

milk - 1/2 cup

onion - 1 medium

garlic - 4 cloves

cheese [romano or parmesan or monterey jack] - 1/2 cup

some dry or fresh parsely and basil leaves.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray cooking oil on a baking sheet or dish.

Finely chop onion, garlic and leaves if using fresh(For a finer texture grate onion n garlic).

Saute them in a tsp of oil.

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.

Make small balls and place on the baking dish.

If the mixture feels too loose to hold balls, add a little more bread crumbs.

Bake in oven for 30 to 35 minutes.

Enjoy as such as an appetizer or add it to pasta sauce and pour over spaghetti or any of your favourite pasta.

Or make a meat ball curry. You can use my Chicken Curry recipe, substitute chicken with meat balls. Viola!! Enjoy!

[if you dont have an oven, pan fry them in medium heat with a couple of teaspoons of oil]
