Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Crumble bread slices as much as possible (use a blender or whatever works for you).
  2. Take 1 1/2 cups worth of the bread crumbs and mix with the cream in a medium bowl.
  3. Allow to stand 10-15 minutes.
  4. Using 1 tbsp margarine, saute onion with chives about 10 minutes, or until onion is wilted.
  5. To bread crumb mix, add onions and chives, beef, salt, pepper and allspice and mix thoroughly.
  6. Cover and refrigerate 1 1/2- 3 hours.
  7. Remove meat mixture from refrigerator and form into small balls.
  8. (I get roughly 40 from this recipe, of course size is up to you).
  9. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a frying pan and add meatballs.
  10. Cook until done in the middle, and nicely browned on the outside (15-20 minutes over medium/high heat).
  11. Remove from pan and place on paper towel.
  12. Drain off about half the drippings, removing any large bits.
  13. Return pan to medium-high heat and add broth.
  14. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
  15. Add sour cream and flour to broth, and mix well.
  16. Allow this to cook about 10 minutes, just below boiling.
  17. Add the meatballs to the gravy and allow to cook about 5 more minutes.
  18. Serve either over egg noodles or mashed potatoes if a main course, otherwise they are great alone.
