By: Jeannie Kuhn

Meatball Ingredients:
1 lb. ground beef
½ c. minced onions
1 T. snipped parsley
⅛ t. pepper
1 egg
½ lb. lean ground pork
¼ c. dry bread or cracker crumbs
2 t. salt
1 t. Worcestershire sauce
½ c. milk

Meatball Directions:
Mix all of the ingredient together thoroughly. Refrigerate the mixture for 2 hours. Once it’s chilled shape the mixture into balls. In a large skillet slowly brown the meatballs in hot oil. Once they are browned, remove them from the heat, but keep them warm while you make the sauce.

Sauce Ingredients:
¼ c. oil
1t. paprika
⅛ t. pepper
¼ c. flour
½ t. salt
2 cups water
¾ cup sour cream

Sauce Directions:
In a sauce pan blend the oil, paprika, pepper, flour and salt together and cook over low heat, stirring it until the mixture is smooth and bubbly. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the water. Return the pan to the heat and heat it until it boils. Boil it for 1 minute, stirring it constantly. Reduce the heat and gradually stir in sour cream, mixing it until it’s smooth. Add the meatballs and heat through.
