Ingredients:

  • 1 pound (450g) ground beef (or a mix of beef and pork)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Olive oil, for cooking

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, egg, minced garlic, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
  3. Use your hands to form the mixture into meatballs. You can make them any size you prefer, but aim for uniformity so they cook evenly.
  4. Place the meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
  5. Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and browned on the outside. You can cut into one to ensure it's no longer pink in the middle.
  6. Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
  7. Serve the homemade meatballs with your favorite sauce, such as marinara sauce for spaghetti and meatballs, or as a filling for sandwiches, subs, or appetizers.
Enjoy your homemade meatballs! Feel free to adjust the seasonings and ingredients to suit your taste preferences.
