Ingredients

Meatballs go perfectly with pasta, barbecue skewers, pizza, soups and many more dishes. Therefore, this is a smart ingredient to make up in larger portions and freeze. Then you can quickly conjure up delicious dinners for a long time to come.

Step 1

When I make forcemeat products such as meatballs, it is important that all the ingredients are cold. This gives you a better consistency. I start by filling a large bowl with minced meat and start by adding the salt and spices. Mix well (preferably with your hands) until the meat has a slightly sticky consistency.

Step 5

Mix until the meat has a smooth and slightly sticky consistency. I usually use my hands when I do this, but it also works great to use the kneading hook in a food processor,

Step 6

Lay out plastic wrap on the bench and start rolling small round meatballs. I'll finish this before I start frying.

Step 7

Pour well with neutral oil in one or more frying pans and fry the meatballs until they have a golden and nice color. I fry on medium heat. Place the fried meatballs in a pan or bowl.

Save on the oil you fry in because it has got a lot of delicious taste and fits perfectly in a tomato sauce. I usually make a dinner with meatballs when I first do this job, but the rest I freeze in appropriate portions. Having homemade meatballs in the freezer allows you to make many good dinners very easily later. Good luck.
