Italian Meatballs

Kmsmokey


This recipe was jotted down from James Barber's cooking show, The Urban Peasant. He
didn't actually give it a name, but I need to call it something, and Italian Meatballs was as
good a description as any.

one pound ground beef
one onion, pretty finely chopped
garlic, chopped
a tin of anchovies
one egg
chopped parsley, and cut basil
tin of whole tomatos
grated parmesan
half a cup water
bread crumbs (prefer italian type)

Mix ground beef, onion, garlic, one chopped anchovie, egg, salt and pepper in a bowl to
get a nice sticky mess. If it's too dry to stick together properly, add another egg. Form into
small balls, roll in flour, and place in a hot pan with a bit of oil. Cook quickly, turning over
to brown all around. To make the sauce, add to the pan parsley and basil, tomatos,
remaining anchovies, parmesan, water, and bread crumbs to thicken it to taste.
