Did this last night and it was excellent! Changed the bacon to some flake salt with two drops of a product called Liquid Smoke on it and it sure smelled like bacon and tasted beautifully. When you do not eat pork you'll have to be a little creative!
A matter of opinion - I simply do not brown meatballs first. Make your mix - heck you can use turkey if you want,. 80/20 is fine but you might need to skim. In a rather deep 12" skillet do your onions garlic...mushrooms whatever, Get them ready for the sauce, whatever it is. Even Hunt's has a large can of pasta sauce for about $1.50. Fine. Put it in. Add the raw meatballs. Make sure you have enough sauce to cover. Do not stir....let them baste, really, for 30-45 minutes. Awesome tender meatballs
@dani222606 . Dani, even though I'm not a big fan of Nico's - I just have to tell you that Australia is a very multi-cultural country. As a result, our cuisine has been influenced by countries all over the world. This is obviously Nico's version. We all have our own versions, a little less of something, a little more of something - but he's not claiming to be making the traditional spagetti meatballs. He's showing you the way HE does it.
@dani222606 Wow...you don't think others know about meatballs? What planet are you from? The Chinese have made meatballs for centuries. Pasta is certainly nothing new. Do you have any idea of the spice trade? Or maybe you are completely ignorant of facts. If you had said "What would an Italian know of making an Australian dish?"......that would make me wonder. Sounds like you just make Ramen and Spaghetti O's.
@dani222606 Does your mom - with the restaurant - know that you talk like that? I saw your page and I won't insult you or call you names because you are a child. I just gave you a history lesson on meatballs. Look up "ignorant". It simple means unaware of. But you call me a bastard? Look that up too. We are done. Class is over.
My family does not eat pork, and don't like mushrooms...do you think it can be done without the mushrooms and bacon and still taste good? Is there something that you can use to replace the mushrooms?
if you flatten then down, the meatballs will become hamburgers,,thats alot of meat for a meatball

what would an Australian know about making an Italian dish?
dani222606 10 months ago
@dani222606 yeah so he should only make Aussie dishes even if he's very good at other stuff like Italian, French, Chinese...
