Baked Porcupine Meatballs in Vodka Cream Sauce image

This afternoon I was trying to decide what to make for dinner, and suddenly I found myself craving good old porcupine meatballs. But I couldn't make plain meatballs, no sir! Here's the recipe I made up, and it came out wonderfully well. An adult update of one of our childhood favorites. Very tasty!

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs lean ground beef (or 1 pound beef and 1 pound ground turkey)
1 cup uncooked rice (converted rice suggested)
1/2 cup finely chopped onions or 1/4 cup dried onion flakes
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup vodka (or an additional 1/2 cup water)
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground caraway powder (see note below)

Steps:

  • Combine the beef, rice, onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, 1 1/2 teaspoon salt, and garlic powder in mixing bowl.
  • Form into 1 1/2-inch balls and place in a lightly-buttered 2 1/2-quart casserole.
  • Combine soup, water, vodka, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, white pepper, and ground caraway in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
  • Pour sauce over meat balls, cover, and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.
  • Makes 6 servings.
  • Note: To make caraway powder, use a mortar and pestle to crush caraway seed into powder. Also, don't use a pearl or other thick rice for this, or it won't cook well inside the meatballs - converted rice (not "instant") is what I use.

EASY CREAMY PORCUPINE MEATBALLS



Easy Creamy Porcupine Meatballs image

Most people make these in tomato soup. I had started making it one day before I realized I didn't have any tomato soup - so I tried it with Campbells Cream of Celery soup... it was wonderful! You can also use Cream of Mushroom soup. Makes it creamy and yummy. I won't go back to tomato sauce... I also stir in a can of green beans at the end of cooking...it's like meatballs AND green bean casserole. Yum.
