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
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef and ground pork. Use your hands to mix them together until well combined.
Step 3
Add the finely chopped onion, minced garlic, eggs, and breadcrumbs to the meat mixture. Mix thoroughly to integrate all the ingredients.
Step 4
Add the chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to the bowl, mixing well to distribute the seasoning uniformly.
Step 5
Using your hands, shape the meat mixture into meatballs, roughly 4-5 cm in diameter. Place each meatball onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the meatballs to help them brown and prevent them from drying out.
Step 7
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).
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve the meatballs with your choice of pasta, sauce, or as a delicious appetizer!
