Our family has been using this recipe for more than 40 years. The tender meatballs are made with a combination of beef, veal and pork, then spiced with nutmeg and ginger. If your family likes their meatballs a little milder, reduce the nutmeg to 1/2 teaspoon. Coffee adds nice color to the gravy, which is delicious over noodles.-Rev.

Tips:

  • To ensure the meatballs are tender, use a combination of ground beef and ground pork, as the pork adds extra moisture and flavor.
  • To prevent the meatballs from becoming dry, do not overmix them. Combine the ingredients just until they are evenly distributed.
  • Before frying the meatballs, dredge them in flour. This helps them to brown more evenly and prevents them from sticking to the pan.
  • Use a large skillet to fry the meatballs so that they have enough space to brown properly. Avoid overcrowding the pan, or the meatballs will steam instead of fry.
  • For a flavorful sauce, use a combination of beef broth, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer the meatballs in the sauce until they are heated through and the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve the meatballs with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. You can also garnish them with fresh parsley or lingonberry jam.
