These homemade meatballs are very juicy and easy to make. They taste great either in a pasta sauce or on their own. Instead of frying in the pan, I baked the meatballs in the oven as it is healthier.
I used ground beef to make these meatballs. But you can also use a combination of ground pork and beef if you prefer.

- Roll level 2 tablespoons of mixture into balls. Chill the meatballs in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking.
- Preheat oven at 180°C for 10 minutes. Grease the baking tray with olive oil and place the meatballs about 1 cm apart. Bake for about 20 - 25 minutes or until browned and cooking through. Turn the meatballs halfway through cooking time to ensure even browning.

- One cup = 250 ml, one tablespoon = 15 ml, one teaspoon = 5 ml.
