To give my pork meatballs an Italian flair I added garlic powder, salt, pepper, Italian flat leaf parsley and some mixed herbs. You just combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl then roll it into small balls. This recipe makes about 30 meatballs and serves 4-6 people depending on how hungry you are.
They are low carb but have the same flavors I grew up making with my Italian grandmother. Using meat with higher fat content makes the meatballs moist and tender without the use of breadcrumbs. The egg helps to bind them and hold their shape. The fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese add authentic Italian flavors.
Whether you prefer your meatballs baked or fried, my keto low carb meatballs recipe produces the best Italian meatballs which are tender just like mom’s. Gluten-free and great for keto diets, too. Add the beef and pork to a medium bowl and break up into smaller chunks, aiming for an even mix.
I have used pork mince to make these tasty Italian style meatballs. They are a quick, delicious family friendly option as the herbs and spices are subtle and not overwhelming. This recipe is super easy to make you just combine the meatball ingredients, roll them up, fry them, then put them to the side while you make the delicious tomato sauce.
