Description
Delicious and flavorful spiced meatballs made with a blend of beef and turkey sausage, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 lb ground turkey breakfast sausage
- 1 small onion, diced very small
- 1 T garlic puree (also called ground garlic)
- 1/2 tsp. Veg-Sal
- 1/4 tsp. white pepper
- 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp. ground cardamom
- 1/2 tsp. ground allspice
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F/200C.
- Put meat in mixing bowl and allow to come to room temperature while you finely chop onion.
- When the meat is room temperature, mix in onions, garlic, Veg-Sal, pepper, ginger, cardamom, allspice, and cinnamon. Mix with your clean hands just until spices and meats are well combined; don’t over-mix the ingredients.
- Mist pan or grilling rack with olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Use a tablespoon-sized measuring spoon to measure out meat, forming small meatballs by rolling with your hands and placing them on the rack as you go. Adjust the size as needed.
- Bake until meatballs are slightly browned and cooked through, about 20 minutes for small meatballs. Serve hot.
Notes
- For ground turkey, use breakfast sausage for added flavor.
- Baking on a wire rack allows meatballs to cook more evenly and lets any liquid ooze out.
