Rusty's Meatballs

by LladyRusty 10/22/2001 9:12 pm

1 pound ground beef (or mix with ground sausage)
Bread crumbs, homemade is best but from a store is
    OK (sorry I don't measure but it's around a cup)
1 egg
A splash or two of milk to just moisten
Spices (basil and Italian seasoning, mostly, but feel free
    to add oregano or whatever you like)
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, smashed

Make meatballs by mixing beef, bread crumbs, egg, milk and spices. Roll into balls to just fit the palm of your hand (guys a little smaller). Brown on all sides in olive oil, a clove or 2 of smashed garlic and chopped onion. After all are browned, remove meatballs to a platter. Make your favorite sauce in the same pot. Add meatballs. Cook for a couple of hours (around 4). Enjoy.
