Recipe

Veal Meatballs

In the Northern regions of Italy, the diet is the richest and most varied. There, livestock prospers and instead of pizza and pasta, meat-based dishes, such as these veal meatballs, are the main course.

Times

Prep Time : 12 min
Cook Time : 30 min
Ready Time : 42 min

Servings

Ingredients

1/2 pound ground veal
1/2 pound ground beef
1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup marinara sauce

Directions

In a medium bowl, mix together veal, beef, breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic, salt, oregano, and pepper. Scoop into 18 heaping tablespoons, and roll each scoop between the palms of your hands to form a compact ball. Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Brown meatballs until golden, about 10 to 12 minutes; place on a plate. Pour grease from pan and discard, and return meatballs to the pan. Add marinara, and simmer over medium-low heat until meatballs are cooked through and tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Divide meatballs and sauce among 4 plates and serve warm.

  I’m with you. Meatballs sound great but baby cows, not great!
  
  Jamie, welcome to Israel! I’m a big fan and was so happy for you to hear you’re making aliyah. The first year is the hardest, promise! Loved your Joy of Aliyah videos.

These look great! I love how lean veal is compared to ground meat so I will definitely be trying these out. I made turkey meatballs this weekend and they just weren’t rich enough. Veal will for sure be rich enough next time!

LOVE veal meatballs because they are so soft an d tender; also these herbs make the mixture delicious. This is one of my favorite go-to recipes that I make ahead and freeze for when I have no time to cook. Deeeelish!
