So, what is meatball?

A meatball is a savory and versatile food ingredient made from ground meat (usually beef, pork, or veal) mixed with breadcrumbs, eggs, herbs, and spices. The mixture is rolled into small balls and cooked through by frying, baking, or simmering in a sauce. Meatballs are a popular ingredient in many cuisines around the world, including Italian, Swedish, and Middle Eastern dishes. They can be served as a main course with pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice, or as an appetizer with dipping sauces. The texture of a meatball can range from soft and tender to firm and crispy, depending on the cooking method and ingredients used.
