This is our favorite meatball recipe. We have been using it for years, I think that is originally came from the Joy of Cooking Cookbook, but I have tweaked it to make it my own.
1 lb. ground beef
2 garlic cloves
1/2 Cup chopped parsley
1/2 Cup grated parmesan cheese
1 Medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 large egg, beaten
3 Tablespoons red wine (optional)
2 Tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
1. Mix all ingredients except flour with your hands.
2. Scoop out mixture in heaping tablespoons and form into 2-inch balls.
3. Dredge the meatballs in the flour.
4. Place meatballs on a cookie sheet and cook in a preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes. Or until internal temperature of meatballs reach 160 degrees.
5. Place the meatballs in your favorite tomato sauce and serve over your favorite pasta.
