Como fazer Authentic Italian Meatballs Polpette
In a large bowl, gently combine all ingredients until just mixed. Avoid overmixing.
Roll the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs (about the size of golf balls).
In a large, deep pot or Dutch oven, pour two 24-ounce jars of your favorite tomato sauce. Add the meatballs to the sauce, ensuring they are mostly submerged.
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
