Dinner Tonight: Meatball Sub Recipe
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 ounces Parmesan, cut into chunks
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- Salt and pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 28 ounces tomato sauce
- 6 Italian rolls
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced provolone
- Toss the garlic, parsley, Parmesan, and onion into a food processor. Process until grated. Dump into a large bowl. Add the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, and the egg. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Mix the ingredients together with your hands until evenly distributed.
- Pour the sauce into a large pot. Turn the heat to medium-low.
- Scoop up a heaping tablespoon of the meatball mixture and form it into a small ball. Repeat with the rest of the meat. Pour the oil into a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add only enough meatballs to fit in a single layer. Cook the meatballs until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes total. It took me two rounds to cook all of them. When they are all done, add the meatballs to the tomato sauce.
- Cook the meatballs in the sauce for about 20 minutes.
- Preheat the broiler. Stuff four to five meatball into a roll and ladle on a little extra sauce. Top with a few slices of cheese. Stick underneath the broiler and cook until the cheese melts, about 30 seconds. Serve with extra sauce, and salt to taste.
