Nhu Lan make their own chicken liver pate (which they bake) and egg butter (like mayonnaise without vinegar or lemon). Add the onions and soaked breadcrumbs: Add the onions, garlic, and soaked breadcrumbs to the meat. Try the Spaghetti and Meatball Soup that I’m sharing on Yellow Bliss Road today! It is also identical to mine except I omit the milk which was a tweak I made a couple years ago.
I make very often the meatballs with the sauce and then serve along with the spaghetti. Lean ground turkey is a great healthy swap that will make for a far healthier meatball dish. As owners of New York City’s wildly popular restaurant The Meatball Shop, Daniel Holzman and Michael Chernow know a thing or two about good meatballs.
I made them twice this week…once for meatball subs with mozzarella and once for ravioli and meatballs. One of the recent comments above (by Erin) was nice enough to work it out on and said that it’s 60 calories per meatball (if 42 made from the batch).
Once meatballs have finished cooking, you can either dip each meatball individually (using a toothpick) in the sauce mixture. The recipe took about five hours, start to finish, an admittedly large time commitment, but the end result was well worth the wait.
Breadcrumbs aren’t the only way to bind meaty morsels: This recipe smartly subs in hominy and cornmeal to keep the ground chuck intact. Pick your favorite recipe and give it a go to get the delicious results that you’ll want to share with others and go back to again and again.
