1/2 pound ground veal
1/2 pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
1 cup freshly grated Romano cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped parsley
salt and pepper to taste

1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
1 cup olive oil

Directions

1

Combine meats in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. Shape into meatballs. Heat olive oil in large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. Fry about 5 minutes per side. Put directly into tomato sauce for further cooking for about an hour or freeze for future use. I place meatballs onto cookie sheet directly from stove and place into freezer for 10 to 15 minutes so they will hold shape better. Then I either put them into tomato sauce or transfer to a freezer ziplock to freeze.
