POLPETTE (MINCE BALLS).

Ingredients....1 kg of quality beef mince, 12 tbs of dry breadcrumbs, 4 tbs of Parmesan cheese, 12 tbs of dried parsley or fresh and finely chopped parsley, 2 medium sized onions finely chopped, 4 tbs of raisins ( optional ), I always add them , 4 egg yolks beaten, 4 tbs of minced garlic , 2 tbs of Italian herb mix, 1 tbs of sweet paprika. Mix the first 6 ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the egg yolk and mix it with clean hands along with the seasonings. With clean hands, mould the mixture into small / medium balls. I am now going to freeze the balls until I have enough tomatoes to make a sugo, in which I will cook the polpette.
