EGG BALLS (MEATLESS MEATBALLS) RECIPE
• 12 Eggs
• 5 cloves Garlic, crushed
• 1-2 cups Pecorino Romano Cheese
• 1-2 cups Parmesan Cheese
• 1 cup Seasoned Bread Crumbs
• ½ cup Fresh Parsley, chopped

• 1 Tbsp. Pepper
• 1 Tbsp. Salt

• Add 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil and mix well
• Slowly add approximately 5 Tbsp. breadcrumbs to mixture one tablespoon at a time, mixing well as you go
• Add another 3 Tbsp. breadcrumbs to egg mixture and mix well
• Let chill 10-15 minutes in refrigerator until mixture thickens
• Remove from fridge
• In 8-quart saucepot, bring your tomato sauce to a slow boil
• Dip hands in olive oil so palms are covered (remove jewelry beforehand)
• Spoon egg mixture into palms of your hands and roll to make shape of small round balls
• Slowly and gently place each ball into the sauce *do not over fill sauce pot b/c egg balls will expand and you do not want them to stick together
• Fill the bottom layer of saucepot with appx 15-20 egg balls, depending on the size of saucepot
• Cover and cook for ten minutes, raising temp to medium-low until it comes back to a very slow boil
• After the ten minutes, using wooden spoon gently turn egg balls over to make sure they are covered and not sticking together
• Cover and cook another ten minutes

This is exactly what my parents have always done with the extra egg and bread crumbs from making chicken cutlets....we had a huge plate of cutlets and my father would make “bread” with the remanding batter. It was a beautiful meatless fried flat bread 🥖🙂 LOVE Lisa’s videos
It looks awesome 😎
My son and daughter in law raise chickens so they always have extra eggs. I had never heard of doing this before so I’m definitely going to try to see if the family likes it. Thank you

Lisa I swear I’m literally making my second batch of egg balls. This is so good and so simple. I’m home with the flu and haven’t gone grocery shopping, but I had all those ingredients. Boom! Dinner served
I've made a similar recipe with Spinach for many years. Just take frozen spinach and drain the moisture by twisting the spinach in a dish towel to remove excess water. The Spinach adds vitamins and texture and helps keep the balls together. Yum!
This is a great option for vegetarians.
How? It has eggs?
@@joselynhernandez2999 because VEGANS are the ones who won't eat eggs. They abstain from all animal products. Vegetarians mostly abstain from meat and meat only. There's a difference between vegetarianism and veganism
My family would make these with extra breading from chic cutlets! We just fried them, and ate them like that!! I still do it till today! Love them
I totally forgot that trick! Thanks for the reminder :)
I miss my mother, but I thank her for teaching me how to cook. Italian mothers are everything.
my family does this too!! so delicious, and prevents wasting the leftover egg and breadcrumb. so perfect :)
You need to make a recipe book Lisa! Greetings from Chile😘😘😘😘

I'd buy a cookbook. I love Lisa's recipes.

Italian Matzoh Balls!!! So cool and vegetarian 🌱.
My Mom was born and raised in Italy she now lives in America but she told me when she was small they couldn't afford meat so,they always made meatless meatballs and we use a mixture like this to stuff squid with for Christmas Eve with pasta and a red sauce ....recipe is a lil different but it's so cool to see someone else also makes these..thank you for sharing
Lisa sei brava, ma troppo aglio nelle polpette di pane, noi in puglia li facciamo sempre e poi si friggono prima di metterle nel sugo...
Those egg balls in tomato sauce looks delicious.Great recipe Lisa
these are SO GOOD! Thank you for the recipe! Rolling the egg balls definitely is tricky but this will definitely be a go to recipe!
This is amazing. I’m vegetarian. I will definitely be trying out this recipe.
They came out great on the 1st try..Delicious!!
Clear and charming! Thank you, Lisa! I have been in love with cooking since I was very young, and I am happy to have come up your videos because we never stop learning, do we? :) You make quite a refreshing influence on my way of cooking! :) All the best to all of you and your folks! :)
That’s the “stuffing” my family uses when making lamb ....my mom used to make me a few stuffing balls on the side bc I loved them so much
Janice Ann your moms sweet.
Thank you Lisa !! I can't wait to try this recipe 🙂
She must be the best wife. Great personality & presence. Loved this recipe❤️
💝💝💝💝
You just gave me a great idea ! I love meatballs and I'm going to try this out. Thank You ! 😋
My grandmother used to make these but she used stale Italian bread instead of the breadcrumbs. I'm going to try this!
I have made them a few times. Thanks Lisa. Delicious
Love her personality.
Lisa your like Wonder Woman ❤️❤️❤️

My Sicilian family had made egg balls for my entire life, they’re easily everyone’s favorite. But my Italian great grandma was not big on “recipes” per se (Nona: “add some parmesan, as much as you need... add the eggs,”
Us: “how many eggs Nona?”
Nona: “As many as it takes you mamaluke!”) so that made it difficult to get the egg balls “just right.”
I’ve spent years trying to get them as good as my grandma and great grandma’s egg balls and I’ve gotten pretty good but my problem was mine were never as light and fluffy as theirs and I couldn’t get it no matter what.
Last night I made them using your method Lisa (not frying them before you put them in the sauce and doing the eggs first only adding breadcrumbs a little at a time so you can control the texture much easier) and I can’t even tell you how awesome they turned out! My husband (who has tried and loved many iterations of my egg balls over the years) literally stopped after his first bite and said “oh my god” out loud. He said they are easily the best egg balls he’s ever had. So thank you so much for helping us to perfect our family favorite!
Wow amazing! Thank you for this recipe! You need a cookbook Lisa
Oh my goodness!!
Thank you for your videos Lisa! 🥰
My Aunty Rosie ( Notaro ) Donovan
Was our Italian cook in my family
She passed almost 30 yrs ago.
So your videos are helping me make things for my family that my Aunty made 🥰
Definitely trying this!
My mother makes eggplant balls with a little bit of white rice to help make it stick...now those are delicious egg balls!!! Lisa’s eggballs look good but compared to eggplant in tomato sauce I can guarantee eggplant balls taste much better.
Those looked so good it looks like what i make in chicken soup except omit all ingredients but the egg I use egg lots of onion powder and sale.pepper.drop in soup broth and have lots of egg puffs in my soup
Excellent video Lisa!👍
Thanks so much!
Well I like all the ingredients , I think every Italian house has the ingredients in stock..lol..I will give it a try..they look good.. thank you..
They look absolutely delicious Lisa! My family are not big meat eaters so this is perfect… Thankyou for sharing & cheers from Australia 😋😋😋💜💜💜
An Italian version of matzo balls!
Never had egg balls but definitely going to try. Thank you ❤️

I enjoy the family stories behind the various dishes you are cooking. Really nice.
Now here's a new recipe I can try out.
This will be great during the lent season!
Love learning your recipes. Thanks for sharing.

These are a little like matzo balls, sans the cheese, and bread crumbs instead of matzo meal. Can't wait to try them!!

This looks great! Is it possible to substitute the breadcrumbs with flour? Thanks!
I used to make something like that but I made patties from left over breadcrumbs from chicken cutlets
I ❤ This Recipe !!
seria muy bueno que el video salga tambien en español
ok ya encontré la traducción de la receta me encanto!!!!
Well, I've made this recipe twice. The first time I halved it, the dough didn't really firm up after 15 minutes in the frig, and they didn't rise when I covered the pot and cooked them for 10 minutes. Disappointing, however, I DID mess with the recipe by halving it.
So, today, I made them again, exactly according to the recipe. Used a little more sauce (jarred) this time too. I allowed the dough to chill for 20 minutes in the frig this time, however, it was still too wet, wouldn't really roll into a ball, and stayed pretty flat after 10 minutes on one side, and another 10 on the other. So I'm thinking, maybe it's the sauce I'm using. It didn't really 'simmer'.. it kind of blub, blub, blubbed--like sauce does...
I still had a TON of dough, so I tried boiling water and cooking them in that..sort of like matzo balls. They were very wet, very loose and didn't really hold together very well. I tossed those in the garbage. I still had quite a bit of dough left. For my final attempt, I greased a mini muffin pan and baked them for 15 minutes. I'm sure they lost a great deal in the translation, but at least they cooked into a usable item. They were almost baked omelet -like ..sort of. The flavor was really good though. I did a second batch in the mini muffin tin, baking for 10 minutes this time--much better!
Not at all sorry I tried the recipe. I doubt I'll ever try to make them in sauce again. Since the dough was the same both times I made it, I'll probably only make half the recipe if I ever do it again and just bake all of it in the mini muffing tins, freezing the surplus balls after they've cooled. Half the recipe makes a LOT. The full recipe makes a TON. :)
Patsy, thank you so much for the lovely comment and for trying our recipes. This is so helpful!
luvlifeallUcan Thanks for the feedback... now I'm probably going to have to try it again. They really are delicious :)
Glad I found you on google looking for egg balls 🤗
We alshave a Family recipe, similar to this.. Yummy.. We call it Cheese Balls. It also has some Mozzarella. It is Delicious !.
Have you ever heard of a poor man’s cutlet? It is the mixture that is left after you have made your Chicken cutlets, the egg and the bread crumb that is left, you combine it together and fry it in the same pan as the chicken cutlet, it’s delicious, you spoon it in the pan of to make the shape of a cutlet
Que guenas yo la hice las albóndiga que guenas me salieron des España un beso muy grande para ti y tu familia des

Can I use chickpea flour instead of breadcrumbs?
Hello mam I m watching from Bangladesh
You can probably make this using matzah ball mix. Same concept.
Oh by the way I've had to explain meatless meatballs countless times to people that don't understand. They are amazed
