Braised Veal Meatballs
Description
Tender veal meatballs, gently braised in our Demi-Glace Gold, make the perfect appetizer or a savory main dish served over home-style mashed potatoes.Ingredients
Serves
4-6
- 2 slices sourdough or French bread, soaked in milk
- 1 pound ground veal
- 4 ounces ground pork
- 4 ounces ground beef
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 1/2 tablespoons ricotta cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3/4 ounce Demi-Glace Gold® or Demi-Glace de Veau Gold® dissolved in 1/2 cup hot water
Methods/steps
- Remove the crusts from the bread and squeeze out the milk; tear the bread into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine the bread with the veal, pork, beef, Parmesan, ricotta, parsley, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, kneading and squeezing the mixture until everything is well blended. Moisten your hands and shape the meat mixture into walnut-sized balls.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil, then the meatballs. Cook, turning the meatballs to brown them on all sides, about 3-4 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the dissolved Demi-Glace Gold® (or Demi-Glace de Veau Gold®), and simmer the meatballs in the demi-glace for about 10 minutes, until they are cooked through. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper.
