This dish was a favorite of Mom's. She passed the recipe on to me when I got married. Now it's become one of my family's favorites, too! It's delicious and satisfying, and calls for ingredients I almost always have on hand. Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef |
4 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
1 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
1 egg |
1/4 cup milk |
1/4 cup chopped onion |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) beef broth |
2/3 cup water |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
6 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered |
6 medium carrots, halved lengthwise and crosswise |
6 green onions, chopped |
1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, thawed |
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine beef, 2 tablespoons flour, salt, pepper, egg, milk and onion. Form into 1-in. balls.
2. Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven. Saute garlic for 1 minute. Brown meatballs on all sides. Move meatballs to the side. Blend remaining flour into the drippings. Add the broth, water and thyme. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
3. Add the potatoes, carrots and onions and stir with meatballs and sauce. Cover and simmer for 30-35 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add peas; cook 5 minutes longer. Yield: 6 servings.
