Cooking Tips

  • Make sure the mozzarella cheese is completely covered by the meat mixture to prevent it from melting out during cooking.
  • For a more intense flavor, you can add some chopped fresh herbs like basil or parsley to the meat mixture.
  • If you prefer a crispy exterior, you can bake the meatballs in the oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes instead of pan-frying them.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover meatballs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, place the meatballs in a microwave-safe dish and heat on high for 1-2 minutes or until heated through.
