Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 tsp minced onion
- 1 tsp salt
- dash of pepper, cloves, nutmeg
- 6 Tbsp milk
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp flour
- 1 (14-oz) can beef broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 bag egg noodles
Instructions
- Combine first nine ingredients (beef through nutmeg) in a bowl; mix well. Shape into 24 1-inch meatballs. Set aside.
- Coat nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Add 1 Tbsp butter. Place over medium meat until melted. Add meatballs. (Don’t crowd the pan; do this in two batches if you have a small skillet.) Cook the meatballs for 8 minutes, until they are browned on all sides. Remove. Set aside and keep warm.
- Wipe drippings from the pan. Place flour and 1 Tbsp butter in skillet; whisk until smooth.
- Add beef broth. Whisk together over medium heat until thick. Remove from heat. Stir in sour cream.
- Return meatballs to the skillet and cook 3 minutes. Serve over egg noodles.
I make one almost identical to this, but without the nutmeg and with a bit of dijon mustard – soo yummy! I am going to try your version though!
Thanks for the idea! It sounds terrific!
Mmmm. That sounds great. I am always looking for beef recipes since that is all that seems to appeal to my DH.
i’m attempting this tomorrow. i’ve never had much luck with meatballs not burning or whatever, but maybe with my new stainless steel skillet it’ll work a miracle. even though your directions say nonstick skillet. i’m just a rebel that way.
my meatballs didn’t burn!! (they sorta stuck a bit, but since there were 24, for 2 of us, it wasn’t a big deal)
my picky boyfriend saw the meatballs and was all “are you make swedish meatballs?!” all excited like, and i said “no..”, and he said “spaghetti and meatballs??”, and i said “no..”. he asked what i WAS making, and i told him meatball stroganoff, and he was all disappointed and said “oh”. but i made it anyhow, and it turned out AMAZINGLY. we each had 2 helpings 😛 and he loved it. i followed the directions to the LETTER, except for at the very end when i dumped in the whole container of sour cream thinking it was only 1/2 cup, only to realize that it was twice that much…but it was STILL excellent. 😛
i’ve printed out your recipe and will definitely use it again. but probably not until, like, October, because i kept walking back to the skillet and dipping the leftover egg noodles in the sauce, so that can’t be good for swimsuit season :P. you rock. but then, we already knew that.
oh gravy, that was long. sorry.
