This recipe for meatballs came from my Grandmother, who got it from her mother, etc. We use these in Lasagna, with pasta, or by themselves in sandwiches.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
2 -3 cups breadcrumbs
2 eggs
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 -3 pieces garlic
3/4 cup italian romano cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 -3 slices soaked american bread
1/2 cup canola oil
Directions:
1. Mix in large bowl all together,.
2. ground meat, 2 or 3 small pieces of garlic cut very fine, 1 teaspoon of parsley, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, 2-3 pieces of American bread that was squeezed (after it was put in water) (or just a little water), 2 or 3 cups of breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup of Romano cheese, 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
3. Form in round or oblong meatballs about 1 in diameter.
4. Fry in medium-hot oil in frying pan.
5. Typically I set the burner to 4 on an electric stove or low on a gas stove.
6. Fry meatballs (5 or 6 at a time) in the pan until they are browned (not blackened).
7. It takes a bit of practice to cook them just right.
8. Serve with tomato sauce, pasta, or however else you wish.
