Yield 15 Meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 kg ground pork or 1 kg veal
125 g ground pecorino siciliano cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs, soaked 3 minutes in milk and the excess squeezed out
3 eggs
2 tablespoons minced parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
salt & freshly ground black pepper
organically grown lemons or orange leaves, rubbed with olive oil
lemons or orange juice

Steps:

  • Combine all the ingredients except the leaves, and make many slightly flattened meatballs small enough that you can wrap each in a leaf (use a toothpicks or skewers to keep them rolled).
  • Grill the meatballs until done and squeeze with lemon before serving. (The leaves are not edible, so you may wish to wrap the leaves in a manner that will be quick to unwrap.).

POLPETTINE - ITALIAN HOUSEWIFE'S MEATBALLS



Polpettine - Italian Housewife's Meatballs image

Zia Tea, my Italian aunt, used to make meat balls when she had left over meat which did mot make another meal for the family. She stuffed it in her meat grinder, ground it and then added raw ground meat. She was not wealthy in terms of money, so she had plenty of fruit, veggies and herbs from her wildly growing garden, but could not afford to buy lots of meat and especially no costly cuts of meat. My mother, studying in Rome during the late 1950s and early 1960s, used to spend her holidays with zia Tea, whose husband worked as a fisher, and they were quite poor but shared everything they had with my mother. The meat they occasionally had was cheap horses' meat and the fish mostly salted codd which lay around in the kitchen cupboard. When I was a child, zia Tea and her husband run a pet store and had some more money, but not much. No more horse meat and salted codd, but some inexpensive beef or pork cuts, thinly sliced turkey or sometimes one of the rabbits from the pet store. Stocking up the left over meat which she ground for polpettine, she used whatever was on sale at the local butcher's, so it was never exactly the same polpettine. But they were the best I ever had in my life! You can use every kind of ground meat you like and adapt the amount of garlic to your taste. She didn't use a lot so that the lemony flavor and the sage and celery were not overwhelmed.

POLPETTINI



Polpettini image

If you ask Anne Burrell, there's a good chance her fiancé, Stuart Claxton, fell in love with her over meatballs. "The recipe here is called polpettini, which roughly means 'little ones,' but I usually make a version of this dish for Stuart called polpettone, which is like 'big one,' " says the chef. "Maybe that's why he put a ring on it!" Anne suggests whipping up these meatballs for anyone you love: "They are great to serve as a little bite before a meal." -Jessica Dodell-Feder for Food Network Magazine.

Steps:

  • Coat a large skillet with olive oil and heat over medium heat. Add 3 diced onions, season with salt and cook until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Add 3 finely chopped garlic cloves and cook 2 to 3 more minutes. Let cool.
  • Mix 1/2 pound each ground beef, veal and pork with the onion mixture, 3/4 cup Parmigiano, 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup water, 3 eggs and 3 tablespoons finely chopped rosemary; season with salt. The mixture should be pretty loosey-goosey; add 1 to 2 tablespoons more water if needed. Roll into 1-inch balls.
  • Working in four batches, cook the polpettini in olive oil in a large skillet over high heat, turning, until browned. Add 1/2 cup chicken stock to each batch; cook until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve on rosemary sprig "toothpicks."
