-
1 pound ground beef chuck
-
1 small onion, grated
-
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
-
3/4 cup parmesan cheese grated
-
3 tablespoons pecorino-romano cheese grated
-
3 tablespoons ketchup
-
1 tbsp flat-leaf parsley chopped
-
4 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
-
1 tsp salt
-
3/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
-
1/2 tsp garlic powder
-
1 large egg, beaten
-
Extra-virgin olive oil
Recipe Method
1. In a
large mixing bowl, gently break apart of the
beef with a fork. Add
onion,
breadcrumbs,
parmesan,
pecorino-romano,
ketchup,
parsley,
basil,
salt,
Worcestershire sauce and
garlic powder and stir gently to combine. Stir in the
egg until just incorporated.
2. Using your hands, shape the meat into 1-inch balls, to make about 60 meatballs.
3. In a large non-stick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the meatballs and cook, turning, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes, adding more oil when necessary. Drain on paper towels.
