Ingredients

18 slices of store-bought white bread

2 cups milk

1 lb ground pork

1 lb ground beef

1 lb ground lamb

4-5 large cloves garlic, minced

2 eggs

1-2 tablespoons Kosher salt, to taste

Freshly ground pepper

¼ cup Pecorino Romano or Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

3-4 tablespoons fresh chopped flat-leaf (Italian) parsley

Tomato Sauce

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Soak bread in milk for 5 minutes. Remove from milk, and squeeze out excess.

In a large bowl, combine meat, garlic, eggs, salt, pepper, bread, and cheese. Mix with hands; do not over-mix. Make loose meatballs a little bit bigger than a plum.

Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper for about 40 minutes, until lightly browned. Allow to cool.

Allow to cool, and add to sauce to simmer for 20-30 minutes. Serve over pasta or in a sandwich.
