1. Place the ground meat, grated garlic cloves, lightly beaten egg, dried breadcrumbs, parsley, sweet, smoked and hot paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well with your hand. Form between 30 and 35 small meatballs, about the size of a walnut.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Fry the meatballs (in two batches if necessary) until brown on all sides. This will take about 5 minutes. Take the meatballs out of the pan and set aside.
3. Chop the onion very finely.
4. Heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet. Add the onion and cook it until translucent. Add the finely chopped garlic cloves and stir for another minute.

1. To make the meatballs, first start by frying the onions and garlic with the chorizo. Place a heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add one tablespoon of the olive oil. When it's hot, add the chopped chorizo and saute to release the fat, for 5 minutes or until the meat turns a darker, golden color. Add the diced onion and saute for 3 minutes or until translucent.
2. Add the garlic and saute together until aromatic (about 1 or 2 minutes). Take off the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature.
3. Meanwhile, combine the pork mince, breadcrumbs, paprika, thyme leaves, egg, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Add the onions, garlic, and chorizo and mix until well-combined.
4. Wet your fingers gently with water roll the mixture into whatever size meatballs you prefer. (Keep in mind that larger meatballs will need longer cooking time). I usually go for a 1-inch meatball.
