Preparation / Directions:
Place veal, jamon, bacon, 1 egg, nutmeg, sweet paprika and orange zest in blender and puree until smooth, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper and form into golf ball-sized rounds. Roll each ball in flour, then beaten eggs and then bread crumbs and set aside.
In a 12- to 14-inch sauté pan, heat 6 tablespoons of the oil until smoking. Sauté 6 meatballs at a time until dark golden brown and then remove. Repeat with remaining meatballs and remove from pan. Add garlic to pan with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and cook until light golden brown, about 2 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, hot paprika and sherry and bring to a boil. Place meatballs into sauce, lower heat and simmer about 20 minutes. Serve either warm or at room temperature.
