Servings 20 meatballs

Ingredients
  

  • 500 g Ground Pork
  • 1 large onion Peeled and finely chopped or you can use onion powder
  • 100 g breadcrumbs 50g for meatballs mixture & 50g for breading
  • 1 large egg beaten (half for meatballs mixture & half for the breading)
  • 50 g flour
  • 1/2-1 tsp tsp salt depends on your salt level
  • ground black pepper
  • handful chopped parsley or carrots (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, combine all ingredients except for the half of the bread crumbs and half of the beaten egg and flour. For the breading: Set a plate of flour, bread crumbs, and half of the beaten egg.
  • Shape meatballs in less than an inch size. Make sure that your hands are clean and dry. You may also keep your hands damp with a little cold water for easier shaping of meatballs.
  • BREADING: Roll the shaped meatballs into the flour, shake off the excess flour. Run the meatballs through the egg to coat it lightly. Lay the meatballs in the bread crumbs then turn it over and press to firmly reshape the meatballs with breadcrumbs.
  • Voila! You have your firm pork meatballs.
  • Tip when frying meatballs: Prick the meatballs using a small stick or toothpick so that the center of the meatballs will be evenly cooked.

Notes

I am lightly coating the meatballs with breading for a firmer shape of it.
