Best Meatballs

This is the best meatballs you would ever try! Honestly, it simple, juicy, tasty and very easy to make. The ingredients are very accessible and most of what you have in your pantry.

I used ground beef but you can use turkey or a mixture of any of these; ground beef, ground turkey, veal or chicken. When you’re making this recipe make sure you don’t allow the meatballs dry out and this will help you make the best meatballs.

I made the sauce from scrtach but you can use a store-bought if you don’t want to make the sauce yourself. This recipe could be freeze for later use or eat as it is if you don’t want to add them in the sauce.

Add the meatballs and stir, check the season and re-adjust if necessary and reduce the heat, stir occasionally and let it cook down.
