SUCCULENT MEAT BALLS...

Meat balls are really easy to make and versatile, you can eat em with almost anything; pasta, sauces, make a meatball sandwich with a baguette, thousand island dressing, tomatoes and lettuce or just much em on their own. 
I had mine with some pasta and fresh tomato sauce with grated parmesan cheese....mmmmmm....

750grm Minced meat
Chopped parsely
2 Cloves of garlic
1/2 Onion, chopped
1/2 Cup of seasoned breadcrumbs
1 Egg
1 Tablespoon bbq sauce
Steak seasoning
Salt and pepper
Oil for deep frying

In a big bowl mix your minced meat with salt, pepper and steak seasoning and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Bring out your meat and allow to sit for about 10 minutes then break in your egg and add all other ingredients. wash your hands properly and get in there and mush it all up until everything is properly mixed. 

Mould your meatballs into medium sized balls that would just about fill your palm when cupped. The egg and breadcrumbs will work to bind it all together so it doesn't fall apart when its being fried. Any bigger and you will have the outside of your meatball cooked with the inside remains raw.

Deep fry until the balls are evenly browned on all sides.

OR

Put your meatballs on a slightly greased oven tray and pop into the oven for 15 minutes, roll over and let it cook for another 5 minutes and take out.



Balls, glorious meatballs.

;)


Try out some of your meatball combos and let me know.

  1. Simple and Nice!! Now I'm soo craving Pasta. Also your post just reminded me that I planned on making melting meatballs today. I usually cut small cubes of cheese and wrap the meat mixture around it before frying. So the meatball has melted cheese in the centre. Now jogging to the kitchen :)
