Kims Italian Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except olive oil by hand, using a light touch. Take a portion of meat in hand, and roll between palms to form a ball that is firmly packed but not compressed. Repeat, making each meatball about 2 inches in diameter.
• In a large, heavy pot heat olive oil over medium-high heat. When it shimmers, add meatballs in batches. Do not crowd. Brown well on bottoms before turning, or meatballs will break apart. Continue cooking until browned all over. Remove meatballs to a plate as each batch is finished. Let meatballs cool slightly; cover and refrigerate until needed.
• Serve with spaghetti sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Soak 2 slices of bread in 1/4 cup milk for 10 minutes.
• Don't squeeze out the milk, as adding the milk and bread to the meat mixture will make the meatballs very tender.
• Add all other ingredients to the wet bread and milk and mix well with hands.
• Roll meat into balls (about the size of a golf ball) and place on a cookie sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes or until meat is done.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a large bowl by hand.
• Use your bare hands for best results.

• Drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce, do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs.
• Continue cooking in the simmering sauce for another 20 minutes (depending on how fast your sauce is simmering 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs).
• After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
