Cooking Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a jelly roll pan.
-
Combine bread crumbs, milk, eggs, onion, ginger, salt, nutmeg, garlic, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Let stand until bread crumbs absorb milk, about 5 minutes. Stir until just mixed and add ground beef. Mix until well blended. Shape mixture into 1-inch meatballs and place on the prepared pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 18 minutes. Set meatballs aside.
-
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté onion until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in flour and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Slowly add broth; cook and stir gravy until smooth and thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Blend in cream, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
-
Gently stir cooked meatballs into gravy and heat through, but do not boil, about 5 minutes more.
Tips
You can make your own bread crumbs by using 7 slices of white bread with the crusts removed.
You can use margarine in place of butter.
