Meatballs
1 lb ground pork (could use ground beef)
1/4 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (crushed Breton crackers work great and add more flavour!)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
Sauce
2 (5 1/2 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (680 ml) can tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground fennel
1 bay leaf (ground up)
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons oregano

1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/3 cup red wine
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

1/8 teaspoon paprika (optional)

1
Preheat oven to 375u00b0F.
2
Whisk together the milk and egg, add breadcrumbs (or crushed crackers) and let sit for a couple minutes.
3
Add the remaining ingredients and mix together just until combined.
4
Roll mixture into meatballs about an inch wide and place on a greased, foil lined baking sheet.
5
Tip: If using for sandwiches, flatten each meatball slightly with a fork - (they become mini burger shapes which are easier to eat on the sandwich).
6
Bake meatballs in preheated oven for 20 minutes.
7
For the sauce, combine all sauce ingredients in a large pot and bring to a simmer.
8
When the meatballs are done baking, add them to the sauce and simmer for an additional 30-45 minutes.
9
For Meatball Sandwiches, serve meatballs and sauce on buns (see my description above, or use your own choice of bun or crusty roll)and top with cheese if you wish, such as shredded parmesan and cheddar or mozzarella.
10
OR -- forget the sandwich and serve the meatballs and sauce over spaghetti noodles!
