How to Make real italian meatballs

Step-by-Step

in large bowl , mix ground beef, ground pork and all ingredients.
make balls rolling the meat in your hands. in a medium sauce pot , add olive oil and fry the meatballs . you are not cooking them all the way, by frying them. just brown them good . they will finish cooking in the tomato sauce .
for the sauce you can follow the my marinara sauce direction. the only difference here is that , you are going to saute' onions and garlic in the same oil , you fried the meatball. to make this sauce you are going to use 2 or 3 big cans of tomatoes instead just i can.
after you start sauce , you drop the meatballs in and let it cook at medium heat for 35 to 40 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through. it's very tasty .. enjoy !!!!!!!
