Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 250 grams Ground pork
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 2 large Eggs
- 120 grams (ensure they are dairy-free) Breadcrumbs
- 30 grams, chopped Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork. Use your hands to mix them together until well combined.
Add the finely chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, and breadcrumbs to the meat mixture. Mix thoroughly to integrate all the ingredients.
Add the chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the bowl, mixing well to distribute the seasoning uniformly.
Using your hands, shape the meat mixture into meatballs, roughly 4-5 cm in diameter. Place each meatball onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the meatballs to help them brown and prevent them from drying out.
Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are browned and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 73°C (165°F).
Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the meatballs with your choice of pasta, sauce, or as a delicious appetizer!
