• 2 cups (248 g) bread crumbs
• 1 cup 12% cream

Combine the breadcrumbs and heavy cream in a small bowl, stirring with a fork until all the crumbs are moistened. Set aside.

• 8 Tbsp olive oil
• 4 red onion, finely chopped

Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for about five minutes, until softened. Remove from heat.

• 1200 g lean ground beef
• 1200 g ground pork
• 8 Tbsp (100 g) white granulated sugar
• 4 (204 g) large egg
• 4 tsp. (24 g) salt
• 2 tsp. black pepper

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, onion, sugar and egg, salt, and pepper and mix well with your hands.

Add the breadcrumb-cream mixture and mix well. With wet hands (to keep the mixture from sticking), shape the mixture into meatballs the size of a golf ball, placing them on a plate lightly moistened with water. You should have about 24 meatballs.

• 12 Tbsp (170 g) unsalted butter

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs, in batches if necessary, and cook, turning frequently, for about 7 minutes until browned on all sides and cooked through. Transfer the meatballs to a plate and drain off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the skillet.
