Pork Mushroom Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Tip the pork, onion, half the parsley and the lemon zest into a food processor with lots of pepper and some salt if you wish, then pulse until well mixed.
• Shape the meat into 25-30 balls and put in a large roasting tin. Arrange the mushrooms in a separate flame-proof roasting tin, sprinkle with garlic and drizzle with the oil, salt and pepper. Roast the meatballs for 25 mins, adding the mushrooms on the shelf below after 10 mins.
• Transfer mushroom tin to hob. Stir in sherry and crème fraîche and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the meatballs, then spoon it all onto a large warm dish. Serve sprinkled with the remaining parsley, roughly chopped.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling water for 15 mins until tender. Drain, return to the pan, add the butter, milk and season, then mash until smooth. Keep warm until you're ready to serve.
• Meanwhile, combine the mince, parmesan, grated apple and some seasoning. Shape the mixture into ping-pong-ball-sized meatballs. Heat half the oil in a wide pan over a medium heat. Fry the meatballs for a few minutes, stirring, until golden all over. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat the remaining oil in the pan, and fry the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and translucent. Add the garlic, mushrooms and thyme, then season and fry for 10 mins more until the mushrooms are soft and most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the crème fraîche.
• Cook the peas or green beans in a pan of boiling water for a few minutes until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry. Stir the meatballs through the sauce and cook for 1-2 mins until hot and cooked through, then season. If you want to make the meatballs ahead, leave to cool. Will keep chilled for up to a day. Reheat thoroughly. Serve alongside the mash and veg.

Steps:

• Mix the ground pork with 5 tablespoons water in a large bowl. Mix in the chopped shiitakes, water chestnuts, Shaoxing wine, 3 tablespoons light soy sauce, the dark soy sauce, sugar, grated ginger, peppercorns, minced scallions, cornstarch, eggs and sesame oil. Stir in the panko.
• Heat 2 inches vegetable oil in a large pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375˚F. Using wet hands, divide the pork mixture evenly into 8 large balls (the balls will not be firm). Using a slotted spoon, carefully add the balls to the hot oil in batches of 2 or 3. Cook, turning until browned, about 2 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
• Line the bottom of a Dutch oven with the bok choy. Arrange the meatballs on the bok choy, then top with the ginger coins, whole mushroom caps, scallion pieces, chicken broth, remaining 3 tablespoons light soy sauce and the white pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until the bok choy is tender and a thermometer inserted into the meatballs registers 165˚F, about 15 minutes. Discard the ginger coins.
• Serve the meatballs and vegetables in bowls. Pour in the broth.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the meatballs: Soak the bread in the milk in a small bowl.
• Put the pork and veal in a large bowl. Squeeze the liquid from the bread and mash it into small crumbs between your fingers as you add it to the bowl. Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, garlic, eggs, parsley, a healthy drizzle of EVOO and some salt, pepper and nutmeg and mix gently to combine.
• Keep a bowl of warm water on hand for rolling the meatballs. Place wire racks over 2 rimmed baking sheets. Roll the meat mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls, moistening your hands as needed, and place on the racks (24 meatballs balls per rack). Bake until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes.
• For the mushroom gravy: Bring the stock to a simmer in a small saucepan. Add the dried mushrooms and simmer until soft.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter and EVOO in a saucepan over medium to medium-high heat. Add the fresh mushrooms and cook until browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Add the thyme, garlic and shallots. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with Marsala, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Chop the reconstituted mushrooms and add to the gravy. Pour in most of the stock, reserving the last few spoonfuls, as grit may settle here. Stir in the cream and cook until the gravy thickens a bit. Add half the meatballs to the gravy. (Reserve the remaining meatballs for another meal, such as Stuffed Peppers with Broken Meatballs and Rice.)
• Cook the noodles in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain the noodles and divide among plates. Top with the gravy and meatballs, and garnish with parsley.
• Cook's Note: The meatballs and gravy can be covered and refrigerated for a make-ahead meal. Reheat, covered, over medium heat while you cook the pasta. Add a ladle of the starchy cooking water to the gravy if needed to thin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, whisk egg, soup mix, bread crumbs and Worcestershire sauce. Add beef and sausage; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1-in. balls. Place meatballs on a greased rack in a 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake 12-15 minutes or until browned., Meanwhile, in a 6-qt. stockpot, heat oil and butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion; cook and stir 6-8 minutes or until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in brown gravy mix and thyme. Add water and wine; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened., Stir in condensed soup, pepper and meatballs; return to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 15-20 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Put the bread in a bowl, toss with the milk (add a little more milk if 1/4 cup isn't enough to moisten all the bread) and let soak for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile toss the carrots with 2 teaspoons olive oil on a parchment-covered sheet pan and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until tender and lightly browned (you can also make the mushroom base at this time).
• Squeeze the milk out of the bread and crumble the bread into a large bowl. Add the beef, mushrooms, carrots, onion, egg, parsley, salt, and pepper and mix together well.
• Turn the oven down to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Working in batches, pulse the meat and vegetable mixture in a food processor fitted with the steel blade until pasty. Return to the bowl. Fill a small bowl with water for dipping your hands, then with wet hands form 1-ounce balls, which will be about the size of a golf ball, and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet. You will need to keep wetting your hands.
• Bake 40 minutes, or until the meatballs are nicely browned. Remove from the oven and if desired, simmer for up to an hour in tomato sauce. I like to serve these with spaghetti.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Crumble meat over mixture and mix well. Shape into ten 2-in. balls. , In a saucepan, bring broth to a boil. Place meatballs in the broth. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Turn the meatballs; cook 15 minutes long or until a thermometer reads 160°. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to a moderate heat.
• Heat the oil in a sauté pan (preferably non-stick), add the onion and garlic, and sauté, while stirring, until the onion and garlic are soft but not browned.
• Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté, while stirring, until the mushrooms are just soft.
• Allow the onion, garlic and mushrooms to cool. If you transfer the onion/garlic/mushroom mixture to a plate (which is at room temperature), 5-10 minutes cooling time is ample.
• Combine the cooled mushroom mixture, minced veal/pork, egg, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, Greek seasoning and ground ginger in a bowl and mix until the ingredients are well-combined.
• Roll the mixture into balls, slightly larger than a walnut and slightly smaller than a golf ball. You should get about 60 meatballs from the mixture.
• Place the meatballs on lightly greased oven trays, turning them over once after you place them on the trays so that they are lightly oiled on the top.
• Cover the trays loosely with aluminium foil and bake the meatballs in a moderate oven for about 45 minutes, or until they are cooked all the way through.
• Add to soup or serve with your favourite spaghetti sauce over pasta.
• Chef's Note: These meatballs can be frozen. And unless you have a super-large ravenous family or you're feeding half the neighbourhood, you may well want to freeze some of the meatballs.
