How to make firehouse meatball

Answer 1

Here is a simple recipe for making firehouse meatballs:

Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for some heat)
- 1 jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, milk, onion, garlic, parsley, egg, salt, black pepper, oregano, basil, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. Shape the meat mixture into small meatballs, about 1-2 inches in diameter, and place them in the greased baking dish.
4. Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and browned.
5. While the meatballs are baking, heat the spaghetti sauce in a saucepan over medium heat until it simmers.
6. Once the meatballs are cooked, carefully transfer them to the simmering saucepan with the spaghetti sauce. Reduce the heat to low and let the meatballs simmer in the sauce for about 10 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors.
7. Serve the firehouse meatballs over cooked spaghetti noodles or with crusty bread, and garnish with additional grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, if desired.
