Ingredients

1 kaiser roll

⅔ pound ground beef

⅓ pound ground pork

1 onion, finely chopped

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

1 large egg

1 teaspoon Hungarian hot paprika (Optional)

salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Soak kaiser roll in a medium bowl of water for 10 minutes. Drain and squeeze out excess water; crumble into a large bowl.

Add ground meats, onion, parsley, egg, paprika, salt, and black pepper to crumbled roll; mix until well blended. Shape mixture into large flattened meatballs.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Fry meatballs in the hot skillet until browned and no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a patty should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
