Preparation Steps
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together bread crumbs and milk, adding more milk 1 tablespoon at a time until fully moistened. Let rest for at least 5 minutes.
- Add ground beef, pork, eggs, onion, garlic, basil, parsley, oregano, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to the bread crumb mixture. Gently toss to combine until ingredients are evenly mixed.
- Shape mixture into 38g (1.25-inch) meatballs with greased hands.
- Choose your preferred cooking method: bake or fry. For baking, preheat oven to 400°F, grease pans, and bake for about 10-12 minutes until browned. For frying, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook in batches until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes per side.
- Transfer cooked meatballs into warmed marinara sauce and simmer on low heat for 10-20 minutes for tender, flavorful meatballs.
Notes
For best flavor, use fresh herbs and high-quality Parmesan cheese.
