I tend to get asked what specifically to do with the meatballs once they've been made. The simple solution of course would be to throw them in with some pasta sauce and serve with Spaghetti or Lasagna. Having said that, from time to time simple is not what you are searching for - so to that end, this article will list a few good suggestions of what else that you can do with your favourite Italian meatball recipes.
#1. A Meatball Sub
This is probably sticking to the simple side of things - however, it cannot be left out of any detailed meatball related list. If you've ever been into a sub shop before, you'll likely have sampled the delights that these beauties have to offer. You'll need a decent sized roll to produce the sub, however whether you go shop bought or bake it from scratch can be a matter of personal preference. Me, I prefer to bake the bread - as store bought rolls just are unable to compare with the taste of home made bread, something which is a lot nearer to that sub shop flavor. After you've got your bread, slap in the meatballs. Now, if you want to go for that genuinely authentic flavor, you're going to want to add them with a proper sauce. After you've done that, add cheese along with your selection of salad, and you've got the ideal lunch or simply a fine snack.
#2 Appetizers
Once more, extremely, very straightforward - but incredibly effective at functions or any type of communal gathering. Just take the earlier cooked meatballs, put a cocktail stick in them and voila - you've the ideal snack that can be utilized either as a prelude to a larger meal, or simply finger foods for your party visitors.
#3. Sweet and Sour Meatballs
Maybe you happen to be fed up of having meatballs with Italian-style food? This is a good little solution. Assuming that you already have your meatballs ready, the ingredients necessary for this Italian meatball recipe are listed below.
* one can of chopped Pineapple, in its juice
* 3 tablespoons of rice vinegar
* 1 tablespoon of either soy sauce or tamari
* 1/3 cup of water
* 1/2 cup of brown sugar
* 3 tablespoons of corn starch
* 1 large bell pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
* 1 cup of sliced mushrooms
* 1 cup of thinly cut carrots
* 1 cup of beansprouts
* Either brown or white rice
After you have all of your ingredients with each other, drain the Pineapple- making certain to save the juice. Place the pineapple to one side, and add enough water to the juice to take it to about 1 cup of liquid, pouring it into a large skillet. Now, add the 1/3 cup of water, vinegar, soy/tamari, sugar and corn starch. Stir this all together until it makes a smooth mixture. Cook it over a medium heat and stir continuously till the sauce is nice and thick. Once it reaches the preferred consistency, add the meatballs, pineapple and vegetables. Simmer the meal uncovered for about 20 minutes, and serve over hot rice for a delicious meal.
So, there you have it. These are just a handful of ideas of what you can do with your preferred Italian Meatball Recipe . The one limit though to what you can do is your imagination, so keep thinking of excellent ideas to boost your cooking!
