Anyone got a Mozarella Meatball Recipe?

[22]

Kids want to make meatballs, I'm hopeless in the kitchen. Had a quick look online and seems lots of recipes, several using pork and beef. We want to use beef only as the local farmer makes it, but beyond that I've no idea which are good or not.

Guess would be served on spaghetti or pasta, not in too much of a sauce, but any recipe recommendations very welcome.

Have you got a food processor or mini-blender "thing" to make fresh breadcrumbs?

I'll search the kitchen, or ask a neighbour so presume yes.

Lovely, thank you. The mince is straight from the butcher and if it's anything like the burgers, 'lean' doesn't come close. I guess I could fry off some of the fat, but then I won't have a raw product to make the balls.

Thanks all. Ended up using slightly different ingredients, but they were delightful. There were only a few meatballs that had 'oozing' mozzarella, for the most part the meat and cheese had become one.

i don't mean to be a tt here but did you not work out you could just take a normal meatball recipe and ball the meat around a chunk of mozzarella? Not sure you need to be good at cooking to work that out!!

You need to be better at cooking than I am. Probably 90% of all the meals I've made in my life have been in the last couple of months. Doing it as something to enjoy with the kids (and maybe learn about meatballs along the way).
