Recipe's preparation

    Italian Meatballs
  1. Place parmesan in TM Bowl and grate for 10 seconds on Speed 9, pour out and place to the side.

    2.      Place garlic and onion in TM Bowl and chop for 3 seconds on Speed 7.

    3.      Place all remaining ingredients (including the parmesan) into the TM Bowl and mix for 5 minutes at Counter-clockwise operation"Counter-clockwise operation" / Gentle stir setting"Gentle stir setting" (or until combined) – stop periodically to mix and break up the mince with a spatula.

    4.      Turn mixture out of TM Bowl into a mixing bowl. Finish mixing (if required) i.e. using spatula.

    5.      Roll into desired sized meatball size.

    6.      When oven cooking: Preheat oven to 180oC and cook meatballs for 25 to 30 minutes.

Tip

If you like your meatballs "peppery" use black peper corns and mill first (or add an additional tsp - to taste).

If you do not like galic or onion, reduce the portions or exclude.

You can cook the meatballs in pasta sauce, instead of the oven - cooking time increases to ~40 - 60 minutes (ensure the meatballs are completely covered in sauce).

 Note cooking the meatballs in the oven will give a crispy outside and moist inside (with onion & garlic caramelised), whilst cooking in sauce will produce and overall moist meatball.

I use these to top off pasta or as finger food at parties tmrc_emoticons.)

Freeze for later use - ensure the meatballs are not touching eachother).

    Got my kids to make these tonight. I thought they were great. Dad thought they were 'spicy' (which made me LOL at the lack of spice) then rephrased that they were okay, but "not like Ikea". I'll be making them again though Smile

    Made last night with almond milk instead and were delicious. I oven baked - while they were baking I made the tomato pasta sauce from the everfy day cookbook to serve with and it was beautiful.

    Will be my go to meatball recipe. Next time will try with milled oats rather than breadcrumbs.

    I made this receipe the first time for our mother's day luncheon, my son who is 7 and GF & DF requests it all the time. 

    We omitted the parmesan and used almond milk instead of cow milk. 

    Thanks for the share!

    Great recipe - I add carrot and zucchini after I chop the onion and garlic (like to get some extra veges in for the kids). They always stay together well and taste great baked on their own in the oven. My 4yr old loves them cold with a bit of dipping sauce for school lunch the next day.

    Thanks so much for this recipe, I added Corriander, Marjoram, and Rosemary  all dried to the mix as well as used only beef mince (it's  what I had to hand) I also used some crumbled Chedder cheese, I baked them also and OMG these were the best,  kids and hubby all raved about them,  am making another double batch now!  Thanks for sharing ☺
