what you need
- 1 & 1/2 cups Italian bread crumbs
- 1 cup light cream
- 1 & 1/2 lb. ground beef (or 3/4 lb. ground beef, 1/2 lb. ground veal and 1/4 lb. ground pork)
- 1 egg
- 1 Tbsp. butter
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- 2 cups boiling water
- 2 Tbsp. flour
make it
Soak crumbs in cream until most of the liquid is absorbed. Mix ground meat, cream, and egg in with the crumb mixture. Melt butter in frying pan, shape meat into balls and brown. Remove from pan and place meatballs into casserole dish.
Dissolve the bouillon cubes in the boiling water. Whisk the flour in drippings in the pan and add the water. Bring to a boil and cook to gravy. Pour over the meatballs.
Cover and bake at 350°F for about 1 hour.
Notes
Any combination of the ground meats will work. Also the gravy isn't thick but thickens upon baking. The leaner the meats used, the less drippings there will be which is fine. Great over noodles.
