Meatballs
Anna helps make the meatballs by tearing up the bread (before we got our food processor in the sea shipment!
This simple recipe can be flavored any way you like, or just make it plain.
INGREDIENTS:
1 lb. lean ground beef
1 egg
2 Tbsp. water
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup minced onion
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In large bowl combine egg, water, bread crumbs, onion, salt and pepper and combine. Add ground beef, broken into chunks, and mush with your hands to combine. Form into meatballs about 1" in diameter and place on a broiler pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes until meatballs are no longer pink in center. Cool and freeze, or use in your favorite meatball recipe.
Becky's Notes:
Anita made these in October 2006 when we were visiting Colorado and Anna ate a ton of them. So, when we moved to Qatar in December 2006 (where we could not purchase pork), I asked Anita for the recipe. These are the only meatballs I make. I add some nutmeg to them and they are delicious!
