Preparation of Meatballs
- Preheat the air fryer to a temperature of 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, Italian sausage, panko bread crumbs, egg, salt, dried parsley, and paprika. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Using an ice cream scoop, shape the mixture into 12 uniform meatballs and arrange them on a baking sheet.
- Carefully place half of the meatballs into the air fryer basket, and cook for 8 minutes. Gently shake the basket and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes. Once cooked, transfer the meatballs to a serving plate and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before repeating the process with the remaining meatballs.
