How to Make Meatballs with Cheese
Step 1: Combine the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, add the 500 g of minced meat along with all the spices, the drizzle of oil, chopped garlic, chopped shallot, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, milk-soaked bread crumbs, and 2 tablespoons of grated cheese. Stir just until everything is evenly blended.
Step 2: Form the Meatballs
Shape the mixture into balls, then gently press them into slightly flattened patties—similar to mini burgers.
Step 3: Cook the Meatballs
Warm a mixture of oil and butter in a wide skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties until both sides are nicely browned and the meat is cooked through (about 160°F / 71°C internally).
Step 4: Add the Cheese
Sprinkle additional grated cheese over the meatballs near the end of cooking. Cover the skillet briefly to allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately while hot.
