Provided by LikeItLoveIt

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h15m

Yield 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup fresh white breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
1 lb ground beef, lean
1/2 lb ground pork or 1/2 lb veal
1 large egg
1 tablespoon shallot, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, fine minced
salt and pepper
1 pinch nutmeg, grated
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 Belgian endive, cored and cut in 1/4-inch rounds
1 teaspoon sugar
salt & pepper
1 1/2-2 tablespoons flour
1 cup pilsner beer
1/2 cup beef broth or 1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh parsley (for garnish)

Steps:

  • To prepare meatballs, soak bread crumbs in milk until thoroughly moistened; squeeze dry with hands.
  • Combine bread crumbs, ground meats, eggs, shallots, parsley, salt, pepper and nutmeg in medium bowl.
  • Form mixture into 6 to 8 balls or patties (2 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick); dust with 2 tablespoons flour.
  • Heat butter and oil in deep, heavy Dutch oven, until hot but not smoking, over high heat.
  • Add meatballs; cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes, making sure butter does not burn.
  • Remove meat balls to platter; keep warm.
  • To prepare sauce, discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat in pan.
  • Add onion and endives.
  • Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes.
  • Add sugar, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons flour to vegetables; cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes longer.
  • Add beer and broth; heat to quick boil, scraping up all brown bits from bottom of pan.
  • Reduce heat to simmer; return meatballs to pan, placing them on top of vegetables.
  • Simmer, partly covered, until meat is cooked through, 45 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beer: Use a beer that you enjoy drinking, as the flavor will come through in the meatballs. A dark beer will give the meatballs a richer flavor, while a light beer will result in a lighter-tasting meatball.
  • Use a variety of meats: Combining different types of meat, such as ground beef, pork, and veal, will give the meatballs a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the meatball mixture: Overmixing can make the meatballs tough. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined.
  • Brown the meatballs before simmering: Browning the meatballs in a pan before simmering them in the beer sauce will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from falling apart.
  • Simmer the meatballs in the beer sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the beer and the other ingredients to meld together.
  • Serve the meatballs with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta are all great options.
