MEAT BALLS
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1/2 c minced onion
3/4 c breadcrumbs
1 tsp dried parsley
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 tsp worchestershire sauce
1 egg
1/2 c milk
SOUR CREAM SAUCE
1/4 c all purpose flour
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
3/4 c sour cream
2 c boiling water

Steps:

  • 1. for meatballs: Mix all ingredients together by hand and roll into 1" - 1 1/2" balls. Saute till lightly browned on all sides then set meatballs aside, reserving the drippings in the pan.
  • 2. For Sauce: Mix salt, pepper, flour, and paprika into the meat drippings. Add 2 cups boiling water and sour cream and mix well. Return the meatballs to the sauce then simmer 20 - 30 minutes then serve over buttered , parsleyed noodles.
  • 3. *you can taste before you add to noodles to adjust seasoning levels to your tastes, or you can add a pack of ranch seasoning mix to the sauce to amp up the flavor and thicken the sauce a little. It stands well on it's own and we like it both ways. ** To use as an appetizer, just make the meatballs smaller and skip the noodles.
