Meatballs

Instructions:

1. Start by preparing the red sauce according to my recipe on the Sauces page. It's recommended to have the red sauce ready or simmer before beginning the meatballs, as they will be cooked in this sauce.

2. Measure all the ingredients for the meatballs. Finely chop the oregano, basil, and rosemary in preparation for mixing.

3. Place the ground beef in a large mixing bowl. Hand-mix the chopped herbs and all other ingredients into the ground beef, ensuring that everything is evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Once mixed, shape the mixture into meatballs. 58 grams is a nice size and works out to 4 meatballs per serving.

4. Heat a large saucepan to medium heat. Add a small amount of grapeseed or olive oil to the pan. Sauté the meatballs in the pan until they are seared on all sides. Then reduce the heat to low.

5. Once the meatballs are cooked to medium-well, transfer them to the pot containing the red sauce. Allow the meatballs to simmer in the sauce until they are ready to be served. This simmering process helps the meatballs absorb the flavors of the sauce and become even more tender.
