Ingredients

1/3 pound ground veal
1/3 pound ground pork
1/3 pound ground beef
1 slice white sandwich bread, torn
3/4 cup milk
1 egg
2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
1/3 cup grated pecorino
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more for garnish
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup tipo 00 flour or all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil

Instructions

Combine the veal, pork, beef, bread, milk, egg, Parmesan, pecorino, parsley, salt, pepper and garlic in a stand mixer fitted with the flat blade. Mix on medium-low speed for 1 minute. Scoop out 2-tablespoon pieces of meat and gently roll them between your hands into balls about the size of a golf ball. The meat will be soft, so dont compress it too much. Put the flour in a bowl and toss the meatballs in the flour as you work. Heat the grapeseed oil over medium heat in a large skillet and, working in batches, add the floured balls, cooking them until golden brown all over, 8 to 10 minutes total. The internal temperature should be about 155 degrees F. Divide the meatballs among plates; sprinkle with Parmesan and parsley.
