Perfect meatballs

[suityou01]

I was thinking today that I have never made any before. So tonight I will have a bash. I have a recipe from the bbc to get me started, but I want to add my own flare.

For some reason I want to make them spicy. Good idea?

Also, would one add a splash of red wine into the mix?

Ideas please people. We can conjour up the bestest meatiest balls ever!!!

I make burgers a lot. Not sure how they're different to meatballs apart from the shape.

I add whatever's to hand - core ingredients beef or lamb mince, seasoning (you need lots), egg, a little flour.

Spring onion, mustard, cream cheese, beetroot, chili (for those who like it), mint if it's lamb. The good thing is you can make them and add tailored ingredients for the fussy ones.

I'm a garlic fiend so it's getting loads. Good tip on the seasoning. One wouldn't want bland balls.

OK step 1, open bottle of wine and pour meself a little drinky.

Then sweat my onions and allow to cool.

On top of spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
I lost my poor meatball,
When somebody sneezed.

It rolled off the table,
And on to the floor,
And then my poor meatball,
Rolled out of the door.

It rolled in the garden,
And under a bush,
And then my poor meatball,
Was nothing but mush.

The mush was as tasty
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew into a tree.

The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.

So if you eat spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball,
Whenever you sneeze.

You must spread some around yada yada yada

A last meal before execution is worth the extra effort.
