Step-by-Step Guide to Making Perfect Meatballs 🍽️
Step 1: Prepare the Meat Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh minced meat from Dannykam Butchery, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, dried oregano, and dried basil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix everything well until the ingredients are fully combined, and the mixture holds together.
Step 2: Shape the Meatballs
Take a small portion of the meat mixture and roll it into a ball using your hands. Repeat until all the mixture is shaped into meatballs, about the size of a golf ball.
Step 3: Cook the Meatballs
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Carefully place the meatballs in the hot pan. Don’t overcrowd the pan; cook them in batches if necessary.
- Fry for about 7-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meatballs are golden brown on all sides and cooked through.
For extra flavor, consider simmering your meatballs in a delicious tomato sauce or gravy for an additional 10-15 minutes.
