  • 3 lbs ground veal (or 1 lb each, pork, beef and veal; or whatever combination of ground meat you want to use.)
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (i used the canned stuff)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk

Directions:

  1. You will also need: thin latex gloves (optional).
  2. Preheat oven to 375, spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside.
  3. Combine meat, shallots, garlic, basil, salt, pepper, nutmeg, egg, bread crumbs, milk and parmesan in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
  4. I wear thin latex gloves because I can really mix the ingredients and shape the meatballs without getting it under my fingernails.
  5. Scoop up 1/4 cup sized portions and shape into 1/2 inch balls.
  6. Place meatballs, spaced apart on baking sheet.
  7. Bake in preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until browned and cooked through (160 degrees in centers).
  8. Do not overcook.
  9. Add to pasta sauce or sweet and sour sauce or brown gravy.
  10. Very delicious.
