Meatballs | Gravy |
1/2 lb Hamburger | 1/2 stick butter |
1/2 lb pork | 1/3 C. flour |
1 lb ground turkey | 1 carton (4C) beef stock |
3 slices fresh bread, processed in blender to make crumbs | |
1 onion, diced | 3/4 C. sour cream |
2 large eggs | 1/2 bunch parsley |
6 allspice mashed with mortar and pestal | more black pepper and nutmeg |
fresh grated nutmeg and black pepper to taste | |
olive oil |
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 2-3 minutes; set aside. In a large bowl, combine ground meat, bread crumbs, eggs, allspice, nutmeg and onion; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1 1/4-to-1 1/2-inch meatballs, forming about 24 meatballs. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add meatballs, in batches, and cook until all sides are browned, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
To make the gravy, melt butter in the skillet. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in beef broth and cook, whisking constantly, until slightly thickened, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in sour cream; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in meatballs and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through and thickened, about 8-10 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
