Polpetta Alla Sansevero

Normally, meatballs are fried then added to tomato sauce, cooked long & slow and either served as a sandwich or accompaniment to pasta. My wife’s favourite way to eat them though is directly from the frying pan, no sauce, no pasta, no bread—just freshly fried. When I fry these, she’s usually close by for quality control—“that one isn’t round, guess I have to eat it now” or “that one’s too small, guess I have to dispose of it!”
