Meatball
A meatball is a ball of minced meat and other ingredients, usually fried in a pan. Except for size and shape, meatballs are very similar to meatloaf.
There are many kinds of meatball recipes with different kinds of spices. How you make your meatballs and which fat you fry them in depend as much on your cultural background as on your individual taste. Ground veal has often been substituted for beef. Liver is sometimes ground together with the meat for texture. Lard may be substituted for butter in some traditional recipes.
