Ways To Make Meatballs

Using A Microwave

1. Mix ground meat, water, breadcrumbs, garlic, parsley, basil and egg together.

2. Form your meatballs to the size you prefer, and then place in a microwave-safe dish.

3. Cover meatballs with sauce and parmesan cheese.

4. Cover with plastic wrap, place in the microwave at 70 percent power for 12 minutes.

5. Take meatballs out the microwave, and add more cheese if you want.

6. Put meatballs back in the microwave and cook for an additional two minutes.

Using Skillet

1. Sear meatballs in a pan coated with some oil on high heat for a few minutes.

2. If you plan on adding meatballs to a sauce later, complete the cooking process in the sauce.

3. If you want to fry the meatballs completely, cook using medium heat. Do not overcrowd the meatballs in the pan so that they will cook evenly.

3. Cook for five minutes on one side, and then roll meatballs over carefully to cook the other side. Continue turning meatballs until they are thoroughly cooked.

4. You can also deep-fry your meatballs at a medium or high temperature. Roll them in breadcrumbs or flour before frying them.

Using An Oven

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Lightly grease your baking sheet and place meatballs on sheet, making sure to space them about an inch apart to avoid overcrowding and overcooking.

3. Cook 15 to 25 minutes depending on the meatballs’ size and type of meat used.

Using A Steamer

1. Mix your ingredients using your hands, and then shape them into small balls.

2. Cook meatballs in steamer for about 40 minutes or until they’re fully cooked.
