Ingredients

6 servings

½ cup plain breadcrumbs
Aiva Products Bread Crumbs
See all
⅓ cup whole milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened oat milk, measured 1:1. It works well in drinks, batters, sauces, and soups; avoid it where milk sets the texture, like custards, puddings, and frozen desserts.
1 lb ground beef (80/20)
½ lb ground pork
2 large eggs
½ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
Chef's tip
Choose a grated-style vegan parmesan and use the same amount.
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1
Stir the breadcrumbs and milk together in a large mixing bowl and let stand for 5 minutes until the breadcrumbs have absorbed the milk and formed a soft paste (a panade).
2
Add the ground beef, ground pork, eggs, Parmesan, garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using, to the bowl. Mix with your hands just until the ingredients are evenly combined — stop as soon as no streaks of egg or breadcrumb remain; do not overwork the mixture.
