Инструкции

  1. Mix the meat, garlic, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, pepper, parsley, and a splash of milk together in a large bowl. Combine well with your hands, then chill the meatball mixture for 15-30 minutes so it firms up.
  2. Get out a cookie sheet and dab your fingers into some water or milk (so the mixture won’t stick to your hands). Then, roll the mixture into 12-13 meatballs that are about 1 1/2 inches and place them on the cookie sheet.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat, and add half the meatballs to the skillet. Turn the meatballs regularly until they are browned, then remove them and let them drain on a paper towel. Repeat with the second half of meatballs.
  4. Use the same pot and add the onion, letting it cook for a few minutes until it is translucent. Then, add the garlic and let it cook for 1 minute. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, salt, pepper, sugar, and parsley and stir and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes.
  5. Add the meatballs to the pot and carefully stir them in. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook them for 30 minutes, making sure to give the sauce a few gentle stirs in the process. Stir in the basil before serving.
  6. Serve the meatballs and sauce over spaghetti.
  7. Enjoy!
