How To Make braised beef balls

  • 1
    Mix ground beef, chopped onion, salt, pepper, and beaten egg together (I use my hands)
  • 2
    Form into balls about 1 or 2 inches in diameter.
  • 3
    Brown in electric skillet set at about 325 degrees. You don't want to completely cook them, just brown them
  • 4
    Add 1 cup of water, lower the heat to a simmer setting and cover the skillet. Cook about 20 minutes or until one of the larger meatballs is cooked through.
  • 5
    Meanwhile, cook potatoes for mashing or noodles.
  • 6
    When meatballs are cooked through, remove from skillet.
  • 7
    Mix flour and COLD water and add to the liquid in the skillet to make a roux. Let cook until it starts thickening and add milk to make about 2 cups of gravy. Let cook 5 minutes or until the gravy is thick.
  • 8
    Pour gravy over meatballs and serve with noodles or mashed potatoes.
