Serves: 1
 

Ingredients:

1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup minced onion
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound pork
1/2 pound veal
1 large egg -- lightly beaten
1/3 cup freshly grated parmesan
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
2 cloves garlic -- peeled and minced
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
5 cups marinara sauce -- (see above recipe),
 

Preparation:

In a small bowl combine the bread crumbs and milk and let soak for 10 minutes. In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and cook onion for 3 minutes, remove from heat and allow to cool. In a large bowl combine ground meats, soaked bread crumbs, cooked onion, egg, Parmesan, parsley, garlic and salt and pepper and mix well. Shape mixture into 1 1/2-inch diameter balls and set on a plate. In the same large skillet heat 2 more tablespoons of olive oil and cook the meatballs in 3-4 batches until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. When meatballs are browned, transfer them to a side plate, add more oil if necessary and continue to cook remaining meatballs. Add the browned meatballs to the simmering marinara sauce and heat for 10-15 minutes. Serve meatballs and sauce with cooked spaghetti or pasta of choice.
