If you don't have time to roll minced meat into small meatballs, make three large meatballs! They look very impressive when served, and these meatballs are even juicier. They're made with ground turkey and ground raw sausage, without casings. Mix the meat with spices, bread soaked in milk, and chopped onion for juiciness, and form into large meatballs. The meatballs are first fried in a saucepan until golden brown, then simmered in tomato marinara sauce until done. Serve them with the sauce on a serving platter with pasta. Everyone will break off a piece of meat. Three large meatballs will serve about 10 people.
