INSTRUCTIONS
In a bowl combine well the veal, 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, the
parsley, the bread crumbs, the salt, half the egg, reserving the
remaining egg for another use, and freshly-ground pepper to taste and
form the mixture into 12 walnut-size balls. (The mixture will be
soft.) In a large heavy saucepan heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over
moderately-high heat until it hot but not smoking, in it saute the
meatballs, turning them, for 3 minutes, or until they are just firm to
the touch and browned lightly, and transfer them with a slotted spoon
to a plate. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the onions to the
pan and cook the mixture over moderately-low heat, stirring
occasionally, until the onion is softened. Add the garlic and cook the
mixture, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the escarole and
cook the mixture, cover, over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 3
minutes, or until the escarole is wilted. Add the broth, the
meatballs, and freshly-ground pepper to taste, bring the liquid to a
boil, and simmer the soup for 3 minutes. Serve the escarole soup
sprinkled with the remaining 3 tablespoons Parmesan. This recipe
yields 3 1/2 cups for 2 servings. Recipe Source: COOKING LIVE with
