Steps:
- Braciola: With meat cleaver or any heavy kitchen utensil, pound the meat slices between 2 sheets of waxed paper. Rub each piece of meat with the garlic clove. Sprinkle each slice of meat with and equal amount of cheese and parsley. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
- Roll the meat up tightly like a cigar, and tie with butcher's twine to keep meat rolled while cooking. Heat oil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add the meat rolls and fry for about 6 minutes or until evenly browned. Reserve meat for gravy.
- Meatballs: Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add eggs, cheese, parsley, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Using your hands, blend ingredients. Add bread crumbs to mixture. Slowly add water, 1 cup at a time, until mixture is moist.
- Shape meat mixture into balls, approximately 2 1/2 to 3-inch balls.
- In a large skillet, heat oil. The oil should be very hot, but not smoking. Place the meatballs in pan, and fry in batches. When the bottom half of meatball is browned and slightly crispy, turn over and cook top half. Remove from pan and drain on paper towel.
- Sunday Gravy: In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and toss to coat with oil. Cook meat a few pieces at a time, about 5 minutes, until nicely browned on all sides. Remove meat from pan and set aside. When garlic cloves have browned, remove and discard them.
- Combine tomato paste and water and stir into oil. Stirring constantly, cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and juice, raise heat, and bring to a boil. Using a tomato can, measure 2 cans of cold water, add to pan, and return to a boil.
- Return beef and pork to the sauce, and add salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil and allow to boil for 5 minutes. Lower heat and partially cover pan. Cook for approximately 2 hours stirring occasionally until meat is almost falling apart and sauce is thick.

Steps:
- SAUCE: Heat oil in large heavy pot (use a seasoned pot if you have one). Place the pork in the pot and brown until just about cooked. Transfer pork to plate. Do the same with the sausage and transfer to plate. Leave fat in pot. Add whole peeled garlic cloves cook until tender. Put garlic on plate with meat and stir in tomato paste until "saucy". Chop up tomatoes leaving the tomato juice in the cans (I use my chopper) and add them to the pot.
- Then add 1/2 of one can of the juice to the pot. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the meats and garlic to the sauce and bring to a boil. Turn down to low and cook for about 1 1/2 hours. Leave the sauce on low and remove all the meat and garlic cloves.
- Mix all ingredients for meatballs and shape into balls. Add to sauce turn up just a little higher than low and let cook the raw meatballs until they are done (1/2 hour) THATS IT!
- Now this is an old recipe, but I have seen it in the sopranos cookbook and this is a bit different.
- I used this sauce to make the ziti al forno from the sopranos cookbook (Recipe #73939) and it was the most amazing thing I have ever eaten, so I posted that too.
ITALIAN GRAVY
This recipe is a homemade spaghetti meat sauce that has been passed down to 4 generations of Sicilians. The recipe has been altered by each person to fit personal preference and taste. Fresh tomatoes can be put in the place of the puree but not recommended, due to the high acidity of the fresh tomatoes.

Steps:
- Soak the breadcrumbs in the milk for 10 mins, or until the milk has been absorbed.
- Combine the beef, pork, allspice, pepper, flour, Worcestershire sauce and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl, add the milk-soaked breadcrumbs and use your hands to squash everything together for a few minutes until well combined. Roll the mixture into meatballs about the size of a cherry tomato. Chill for at least 30 mins. Will keep covered and chilled for up to 24 hrs, or frozen for up to two months.
- Make the berry sauce by cooking the cranberries and sugar in a small saucepan over a medium heat with a splash of water for 5-8 mins until the berries have burst and the sauce looks syrupy and glossy. Add a little more water if it becomes too thick. Leave to cool.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4 and have a baking tray to hand. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the meatballs, in batches if needed, for 8-10 mins until nicely browned on all sides. Transfer to the baking tray and bake in the oven for another 10 mins while you make the gravy.
- Melt the butter in the same frying pan you fried the meatballs in (no need to wash it first) and stir in the flour. Sizzle for a minute or two, then slowly add the stock, whisking to make a smooth sauce. Bubble for 2-3 mins to allow the gravy to thicken, then add the cream and Worcestershire sauce and some seasoning. Tip the meatballs back into the sauce, scatter with the dill and serve with mash or chips, if you like, and the cranberry sauce.

"CHRISTMAS was the time when our family forgot about the food budget and splurged on one special meal. I can still see Grandmother making dozens of these little meatballs! The hint of spices gives them a savory taste that makes them authentically Norwegian."

- Add the meat and parsley. Blend everything together well, using your hands or a large wooden spoon. Use a ¼-cup measuring cup to portion the mixture and roll into balls. They don’t have to be perfect – craggy meatballs have character and hold the sauce better.
- Pour enough oil into a large skillet to coat the bottom and place over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add as many meatballs as will fit in the pan without crowding. They should sizzle as soon as they hit they pan or the pan isn’t hot enough.
