Steps:
- Combine the meatballs: Add all the meatball ingredients (excluding the vegetable oil) to a large bowl and mix well using your hands. Shape into 1 inch meatballs. You should get about 40 to 50 meatballs.
- Prep for cooking: Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Add some vegetable oil to a large skillet, about 1/4 cup and heat it over medium-high heat.
- Cook the meatballs: Add meatballs to the skillet and cook. If not all meatballs fit in the skillet you will have to do this in a couple batches. Cook the meatballs on all sides, adding more oil if needed in between batches. Remove meatballs from skillet to prepared baking sheet, to soak up the oil.
- Saute the mushrooms: Discard any leftover oil from the skillet and add the butter and melt. Add the mushrooms to the skillet and saute for about 5 minutes until they start to brown.
- Create the sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir, cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw taste of flour. Add the white wine, heavy cream and chicken broth. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The sauce should thicken and reduce a bit. If the sauce is too thick add a bit more heavy cream or chicken broth.
- Finish the dish: Add the meatballs to the mushroom sauce and toss them around making sure they're covered in the sauce. Cook for 2 more minutes until they heat through, then garnish with fresh parsley or dill. Serve over mashed potatoes, noodles or rice.

Tips:
- For perfectly browned meatballs, sear them over medium-high heat until a crust forms. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the meatballs are cooked through.
- To make a flavorful mushroom gravy, use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are browned and release their liquid.
- To thicken the gravy, add a roux made from equal parts butter and flour. Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, or until it is golden brown. Then, whisk the roux into the mushroom gravy and cook until the gravy has reached the desired consistency.
- Season the meatballs and gravy to taste with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
