How to make Meatballs With Sauce
Pork and Beef – I use a mixture of ground beef and pork (mince) in my recipe, the beef gives it flavour, the pork gives it juiciness and tenderness, but you can use all beef if you don’t have or like pork;
Beef stock/broth and heavy cream – for the gravy;
Garlic – garlic is not usually found in meatballs, but I prefer it and have included it for this reason. Omit if you don’t want to include it. Use minced garlic if you prefer.
Egg – for binding the meatballs together;
Flour – to thicken the gravy; To replace the flour in the gravy sauce. Add the cornstarch mixture at the end, while continuously stirring over low heat until sauce has thickened.
Make the Meatballs: combine ground beef and pork, garlic, onion, egg, milk and bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper. then mix well with your hands, pressing the ingredients into the meat. You can roll the mixture into 24 small balls or 16 larger balls.
Cook Meatballs: Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a pan on medium-high heat. Fry meatballs in batches, they don’t stew or simmer. Rotating them with a fork until all sides are browned, then remove meatballs into a bowl.
Make the Sauce For Meatballs: Melt butter in a skillet and whisk in the flour until it dissolves and turns brown in colour.. Whisk in beef broth, stirring constantly until slightly thickened.
Pour in the sauce heavy cream dijon mustard, soy sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix the sauce through well to combine all of the flavours together.
Continue to simmer until thickened
Return meatballs into the gravy in the pan, sprinkle with parsley and serve! Meatballs With Sauce is Ready!
