Directions
Preheat oven to 200°C/400F
In a bowl, combine all ingredients
Hand form into balls by packing with your hands and then rolling. Set aside on a baking sheet, preferably one with a cooling rack
Either halfway through the packing process or after forming all meatballs, heat a large skillet to medium-high heat
Add 1-2 tbsp of oil to the skillet (enough to evenly coat the skillet), and bring to heat
Fill the skillet with meatballs, start by browning one face, flip once at after 2-3 minutes, and then remove to the baking sheet after another 2-3 minute. Continue in batches until all meatballs have been browned
Transfer to the oven, and cook until the inside registers 60°C/140F on an instant read thermometer. This should be about 20 minutes for large meatballs (16 per batch), maybe 10 for small (48 per batch)
Serve with pasta or on a meatball sub
