| 1. Heat the milk in a pot until steamy, turn off the heat and tear the bread into small pieces and soak in the milk . Mash it until it resembles a paste. Put it on a plate and let cool, set aside. | 2. In a large bowl combine beef, pork,ricotta cheese, grated parmesan, eggs,salt,parsley,oregano,black pepper,garlic cloves and the milk/bread mixture. mix with your hands until it's barely combined! Do not over work the mixture or they will be tough. | 3. Wet your hands and form meatballs, they should be about -3 inches across! But you can make them any size you want! Set each one on a oiled plate or wax paper while your making all the others. | 4. When the meatballs are formed, heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Brown on at least 2 sides, I like trying to brown as many sides as possible. | 5. Now they are ready tto add to the sauce or use as you please. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
