Josh's omg You Made That Yourself? Meatballs
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 5 cloves of minced garlic (or 3 if you are afraid to taste)
- 2 slices whole wheat bread, toasted and chopped
- 1 sleeve of those round buttery cracker, smashed
- 12 cup jasmine rice
- 1 dash milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- garlic salt
- 1 dash onion powder
- canola oil
- Step 1:.
- In a large mixing bowl combine ground beef, garlic, egg, rice and toasted bread crumbs.
- Take the sleeve of crackers and smash them while still in the sleeve, then add to mixture.
- Mix with your hands.
- Really get in there and mix it up so you can tell what sort of consistency you have.
- If it seems too dry, add a dash of milk.
- You want to be able to make 1 inch balls without them falling apart.
- Step 2:.
- Add the oregano, thyme, parsley, and a dash of onion powder.
- For the garlic salt, I like to shake out a thin layer on top of the mixture and then mix it in with my hands.
- You want to be able to pick up the meat and hold it close and be able to smell the garlic salt.
- Step 3:.
- Make 1 inch balls of the mixture and set aside.
- Step 4:.
- Now that the balls are complete, heat up a quarter inch of canola oil on medium heat in a large saucepan and place around 8 of the 1-inch meatballs in the pan at a time, turning occasionally.
- You really need to make sure the heat is not too high or they will burn on the outside before the center is fully cooked.
- Serve with marinara or meat sauce and your favorite pasta.
- Enjoy!
