Sweet 'N' Sour Turkey Meatballs Recipe
Ingredients:


1 pound extra-lean ground turkey (around 6%-8% fat)
2 slices whole-wheat bread, finely chopped, or 1 cup soft bread crumbs
1 large egg (or 1/4 cup egg substitute, if desired)
2 tablespoons finely minced onion
2 tablespoons low-fat milk
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
Dash or two or freshly ground pepper
2 to 6 tablespoons nonalcoholic beer, chicken broth or water (optional)
1/2 cup Heinz chili sauce
1/2 cup red currant jelly
Preparation:


In a large bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients, mixing well with a wooden spoon or your hands. Form into about 40 bite-size meatballs.
Spray a nonstick frying pan with canola cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. When pan is hot, add the meatballs, cover the frying pan and brown them for about 5 minutes.
Turn the meatballs over, adding the beer or other liquid if necessary to prevent sticking. Cover and brown about 5 minutes more, or until meatballs are cooked through.
Combine the chili sauce and jelly and pour over the meatballs. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes, stirring and basting the meatballs frequently until the sauce thickens nicely. Serve with toothpicks.

Answer 3

A mixture of ground beef, pork and veal. Recipe as follows:
1 1/2 lbs. meat
2 eggs
3/4 cup bread, stale bread soaked in milk to soften or 1/2 cup bread crumbs
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup parmesan or romano cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Mix everything together. Scramble eggs well before adding them. If using the soaked bread, mix it very well. Brown all sides before adding to sauce. They do not have to be cooked completely as they will continue to cook while your sauce is simmering.

Answer 4

My preference is sweet Italian sausage and lean ground beef (1 pound each). Add a couple of eggs and some bread crumbs (3 cups or so)or ground saltine crackers, chopped onion and a little Worcestershire sauce (if you are cooking them in mushroom sauce).

The KEY to a good meatball is in the cooking. Form them by hand in the size you desire. Place them in a skillet with about 1/4 inch of boiling water. Put on the lid and steam them first, then finish them by browning. If you try to brown them first they will crumble. DON'T try to cook them in the sauce...put them in after the sauce is cooked....they are great in a mushroom sauce, BBQ or traditional spaghetti sauce.
YUMMMM
