Meatballs Please

John Capua’s Meatballs


So yummy!


2 pounds ground beef

¼ cup water

1 1/2 cups bread crumbs

1 tablespoon oregano, dried

1 tablespoon basil, dried

1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, dried

3/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese

2 cloves fresh garlic or 1 teaspoon garlic chips, dried

½ teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper


1. Place all ingredients in a 9x13 dish.

2. Combine well by hand.

Now you can not be grumpy when doing this step, for real!

So start whistling. Seriously, pick a tune and whistle.

Your meatballs will thank you for it.

3. Form into tight balls, use a little bit of water.

4. Heat ¼ cup oil in pan over medium-high heat.

5. Place meatballs in oil and fry till outside is browned.

6. Remove meatballs and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil.

7. Carefully add meatballs to spaghetti sauce.

8. Cook sauce as directed.

Right Dad?
