Spaghetti and Meatballs



Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • ¾ cup fresh bread crumbs no crust (I used whole wheat)
  • 1/8 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs
  • 1 Tablespoon chopped, fresh, flat-leaf parsley
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ½ cup warm water
  • Vegetable Oil
  • Spaghetti Sauce
  • Noodles


Directions:
1. Combine the first 9 ingredients in a mixing bowl using a fork. Then form into balls.




2. Heat the oil in a pan (I use about 1/2 cup of oil) and brown all sides of the meatballs. Cook in batches, don't overcrowd the pan! I cook about 6 at a time (usually takes 10 minutes). 



3. Heat spaghetti sauce in a separate pan. Sometimes I will saute some sliced mushrooms on the side and add that to the sauce. Add in the meatballs once they have been browned so that the insides can continue to cook.

4. Boil your noodles then drain. 
                          

5. Serve desired amount of noodles with sauce and meatballs!
(you can also freeze extra meatballs to use later).
