Meatball Preparation
- Begin by soaking the crustless bread in white wine for about 5 minutes, then tear into small pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, lean ground beef, egg, parsley, oregano, cumin, onion, garlic, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly for about 2-3 minutes.
- Gently crumble the soaked bread into the meat mixture and knead lightly until evenly distributed.
- Form the mixture into about 15 oval-shaped meatballs and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and sear the meatballs for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Sauce Preparation
- Once the meatballs are seared, reduce heat and add butter to the skillet. Melt it, then whisk in flour until sandy and golden.
- Slowly pour in the hot stock and lemon juice, whisking until the mixture thickens (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the meatballs back to the skillet, spoon the sauce over them, cover, and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes.
- Once cooked, serve the meatballs hot, drizzling the lemon sauce over them. Pair with roasted Greek potatoes or rice.
