List of Ingredients

1 lb ground chuck
1 Tb basil
1 medium onion diced
1 Tb dill oregano
1 stalk celery chopped
1/4 lb mozzarella sliced
1 egg
1 can Italian tomato sauce
1/2 bread crumb
1/4 c grated parmesan
3 Tb olive oil
submarine sandwich buns


Recipe

Place the ground beef in a medium mixing bowl and add the onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs and spices. Mix with a wooden spoon. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Form the meat in 1-1/2 inch balls and brown in the oil. When the meat is browned, add the tomato sauce, cover and cook for 10-15 minutes. Taste the sauce: you may want to enhance it with more spices, sugar or red wine. Preheat the oven's broiler. Cut a triangular wedge out of each sub roll and line the roll with 1-2 slices of mozzarella. Using tongs, place two or more meatballs in the roll. If they are fairly large, you may want to cut them in half. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese of the top and place the sandwiches on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler for 2-4 minutes, until the roll and cheese are just beginning to brown.
