Any good meatball recipes?

I would prefer something with ground beef since that is generally cheaper and I would rather not spend a lot for dinner tonight. So if anyone has any really good meatball recipes that don't cost a lot then please do tell ^_^Any good meatball recipes?
Beef mince


Onion - chopped finely


Garlic - chopped finely or crushed


1 egg for binding


pepper %26amp; salt





This is my basic meatballs. Some days I will add some if not all, depending on what taste I feel like having, the below ingredients:


Worcestershire sauce


Soya sauce


Chilli sauce


Grated parmesan cheese


Chopped parsley





Roll these into balls %26amp; saute in hot oil until nice %26amp; brown %26amp; cooked through.


Serve as is or with pasta.
