  • 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 3/4 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground veal
  • 1/4 pound lean ground pork
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
  • 1 teaspoons instant coffee
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 2 cups half and half
  • ½ teaspoon instant coffee
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger

Instruction

  • In a small bowl, mix together bread crumbs and milk. Set aside and allow to soak for 5 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a skillet, saute onions in 2 tablespoons of butter. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add your meats, onion, half-and-half, parsley, bread crumbs, ginger, and instant coffee. Mix with clean hands until everything is incorporated very well.
  • Scoop a rounded tablespoon of the meat mixture, and form into a ball. Place into a mini muffin tin. Continue rolling until you've used all your meat or your tin is full.
  • Place tin on a baking sheet to catch drips that might fall in your oven. Bake in a 400°F oven for 17-20 min, until cooked through.
  • Remove meatballs from tin using a spoon. Place on a plate and set aside. Empty remaining drippings into a large pot.
