Twisted Meatball Subs Recipes

MEATBALL SUBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place ground sirloin in a large mixing bowl and punch a well into the center of meat. Fill well with the egg, bread crumbs, onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire, parsley, cheese, and a little salt and pepper. Mix up meatball ingredients until well combined, yet not over-mixed. Divide mix into 4 equal parts, roll each part into 4 balls and space equally onto a nonstick baking sheet. Place meatballs in oven and roast about 12 minutes. Break a meatball open and make sure meat is cooked through before removing from the oven.
• Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add oil and garlic. When garlic starts sizzling, add herbs and crushed pepper. Allow oil to infuse for half a minute, then stir in the tomatoes and season sauce with salt and pepper. Bring sauce to a bubble, reduce heat, and simmer until meatballs are removed from oven.
• Combine meatballs and sauce and pile into sub rolls, 4 meatballs per sub. Top with shredded cheese and place under subs under broiler to melt cheese. Top with shredded basil or arugula and serve with a pile of Oven Fries.
• Drizzle potatoes with a generous pour of extra-virgin olive oil. Toss potatoes with seasoning blend or coarse salt and pepper. Place potatoes on a nonstick baking sheet and roast 20 minutes or until just tender. Give the baking sheet a good shake after 10 minutes to avoid sticking.

EASY MEATBALL SUBS

• To make the meatballs, fry the onion and garlic in a splash of olive oil until soft and fragrant. Allow to cool.
• Place the pork, beef and onion mixture in a large bowl.
• Squeeze the soaked bread slices to get rid of any excess milk and add to the meat. Add the herbs salt and pepper then mix well. Fry a teaspoon of the mixture in a hot pan to check the seasoning and adjust accordingly.
• Form golf-ball sized meatballs and place on a clingfilm-lined tray.
• Brown the meatballs in a large, oven-proof pan then remove and set aside.
• To make the tomato sauce, add a splash of oil to the pan you used for the meatballs then fry the onion and garlic until soft and fragrant. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, beef stock, herbs, sugar and seasoning and allow to simmer, uncovered, for approximately 10 minutes or until the sauce has reduced by a quarter.
• In the meantime, pre-heat the broiler/grill of your oven.
• Place the meatballs back into the sauce then allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
• Cut the baguettes into 10-15cm pieces then stuff each piece with meatballs, sauce and mozzarella.
• Place on a sheetpan and into the oven. Allow to cook until the mozzarella has melted and the the edges of the bread is toasted, approximately 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and serve.

MEATBALL SUBS

Steps:

• For the meatballs: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine the ground beef and breadcrumbs. Add the milk, onion, parsley, salt, pepper, garlic and egg. Mix to combine.
• Scoop out 2 tablespoons of the meatball mixture and roll into a ball. Continue with the remaining meatball mixture, making about 40 meatballs. Arrange the meatballs in a single layer in a large rectangular baking dish or foil pan. Bake, uncovered, until the meatballs are cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Pour the marina over the meatballs, then continue to bake until the sauce is heated through, about 10 minutes more. Toss the meatballs to coat in the sauce and set aside.
• For the rolls: Turn the oven temperature down to 375 degrees F.
• Stir together the butter and garlic in a small bowl. Tear off the tops of the rolls, creating a nice boat to hold the meatballs. Transfer the rolls and torn pieces to a baking sheet and brush generously with the garlic butter. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Build the meatball subs: Load 5 meatballs into each roll. Spoon over some of the sauce. Top with some onions and sprinkle over the basil and Parmesan. Serve with more sauce and the toasted bread pieces.
• Reheating instructions: Reheat the meatballs in a pan, covered, at 350 degrees F until warmed through, about 25 minutes.

TWISTED MEATBALL SUBS

Steps:

• Roll each dinner roll into a 12-inch rope. Skewer one end of the rope, then a meatball, wrap the dough half way around the meatball and skewer the dough again, then another meatball. Continue this process until you have 3 meatballs on your skewer and end with dough. Position the meatballs at least an inch apart on the skewer. Repeat with all 12 rolls.
• Lay on sprayed baking sheets and bake at 350°F 18-20 minutes or until dough is golden brown and meatballs are heated through.
• Combine butter, parmesan cheese and dried parsley and brush over subs. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping.
