Ingredients:
4 slices white bread
1 cup milk
2 pounds ground beef
2 tablespoons onion, finely minced (about 1/2 small onion)
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup Parmesan or Pecorino-Romano cheese
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup bread crumbs (preferably unseasoned)
Oil for greasing pan


How to make this recipe:
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees F. In small bowl, soak bread in milk. In large bowl, add beef, onion, egg, cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. Combine with clean hands (you may want to take off your rings). With your hand, mash the milk-soaked bread in its bowl until bread breaks down and is soupy. Add milk and bread to meat; combine with hands. Add bread crumbs, and combine well. You're now ready to form the meatballs.

Make golf-ball-sized meatballs by rolling them in the palms of your hands. Arrange meatballs on a lightly-greased, rimmed baking sheet. You can crowd them if you want. Bake for 20 minutes, or until tops are browned and slightly crispy and centers are no longer pink. Makes about 3 dozen meatballs.
