I make a slurry (panade??) of fresh bread crumbs and milk which I add to the ground beef, seasonings and eggs. I'm a home cook and make this without measurements so it's hard for me to say what the amounts are. But for a kilo of meat (about 2 pounds), I'd use 1/2 cup of crumbs and 1/4 cup of milk, two whole eggs and seasonings (I use granulated garlic, salt, pepper and herbs- which ones depending on the sauce).

I've made avgolemono meatballs- I add rice and grated lemon rind to the mix and use Greek herbs (oregano, basil, rosemary). I make 1-1/2" balls and simmer them in beef broth. Then I remove the meatballs (keeping them warm) and make the sauce with some of the broth. You can find recipes for avgolemono sauce through Google.

I've also simmered the meatballs in tomato sauce (my mom used Campbell's condensed tomato soup!!) with lemon juice/rind added.
