Meatball Sub
Directions
- 1Prepare the bread by cutting into four equal pieces and forming four rolls. Place on the baking sheet and sprinkle with flour. Cut and bake for 15 minutes at 350°F.
- 2To prepare the cheese, combine the milk and rennet in a pan, let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then cut it in a grid, gently stirring until curds form. Let it sit and remove the curds to the cheese cloth to drain excess water.
- 3Prepare the meatballs by combining ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, parsley, salt, pepper and egg in a bowl and mixing well. Roll the meat mixture into balls using a meatball scoop.
- 4In a large pan, fry the meatballs until golden brown.
- 5Add the chopped onions to the same pan and cook until translucent. Add the tomato sauce and simmer for 10 minutes.
- 6Add the meatballs to the tomato sauce and simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
- 7Once the bread is baked, slice it lengthwise and fill with mozzarella cheese, meatballs and tomato sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and basil leaves. Cut and enjoy.
