One of my favorite things about the Internet is how you can
make outrageous claims with complete impunity. For example, I’m claiming that
this is the world’s fastest meatball recipe, and while I have plenty of
evidence to support my claim, I really like knowing that I’ll never need to. In
related news, I’m one of the world’s strongest men.
Anyway, these meatballs are
significantly faster than a
traditional recipe for three main reasons: First, there’s no chopping
and sauteing to make the base mixture. Secondly, there’s no rolling
involved. Small
meatballs cook fast, and are always tender, but they’re a pain in the
butt to
roll. By using a small portion scoop, you can do an entire pan in a few
minutes.
Lastly, broiling instead of frying is not only a quicker way
to brown, but way less messy. Yes, you could just bake, but
the broiler will take about half the time. By the way, as I mention in the video, if you have a
few extra minutes, let the meatballs simmer on low to make the tomato sauce
even more flavorful.
