Meatballs in dill sauce

Servings: 6 people, 2 meatballs each

Servings: 6 people, 2 meatballs each
Ingredients
  • Meatballs
  •  
  • 2 lbs ground pork
  • ¾ teaspoon of meat seasoning (Vegeta but you could use poultry seasoning or something)
  • Half a medium onion
  • Stale bread or bread crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • Flour to roll meatballs in
  • Olive oil for frying
  •  
  • Dill sauce
  • ½ of the meatball broth (needs to be warm-cold, NOT hot)
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons flour
  • ½ bunch of dill at the end (½ bunch or less, add to your taste)
Steps
  1. Meatballs
  2. Take half medium onion chopped and fried for a few minutes to make it shiny not brown, cool off
  3. Take a dry (stale) bun (just normal bread, not sweet) soak it in water and squeeze the excess water out (you could use bread crumbs instead if you need to, just soak and squeeze also)
  4. Put everything above in a bowl and add one egg. Mix it well with your hands. If the mix is too hard/dry add some cold water
  5. Make into balls and roll them in some flour.
  6. Fry in olive oil (small amount, approx 3 to 4 tablespoons) until light brown.
  7. Put balls into a pot, deglaze the pan and add that over the meatballs. They should be just covered with water, enough to make gravy with.
  8. Add seasoning, bouillon cube (beef, chicken, whatever) and some salt
  9. Bring to boil then summer for 45 minutes to an hour
  10. If you can't finish the meatballs in one kitchen session, you can stop here and then finish in the next few days
  11. Dill sauce
  12. Take a ½ of the meatball broth (needs to be warm-cold, NOT hot) and add 3 to 4 tablespoons of flour and mix it until thick.
  13. Add your flour/broth mix back to the meatballs and bring it to a boil
  14. Add dill at the end (½ bunch or less, add to your taste)
  15. You can serve it with mashed potatoes or noodles. You could use the kluski noodles or Mike's mom likes the spiral noodles.
Notes
  • Original email recipes
  • > Meatballs in Dill Sauce (this recipe would feed like 6 people, 2 large meatballs apiece.)
  • > - 2 lbs ground pork
  • > - ¾ teaspoon of meat seasoning (she uses this Polish seasoning Vegeta but you could use poultry seasoning or something)
  • > - Half medium onion chopped and fried for a few minutes to make it shiny not brown, cool off
  • > - Take a dry (stale) bun (just normal bread, not sweet) soak it in water and squeeze the excess water out (you could use bread crumbs instead if you need to, just soak and squeeze also)
  • > - Put everything above in a bowl and add one egg. Mix it well with your hands. If the mix is too hard/dry add some cold water
  • > - Make into balls and roll them in some flour. Alice said she made the meatballs too big this time so you could make them smaller if you want.
  • > - Fry in olive oil (small amount, approx 3 to 4 tablespoons) until light brown. (I attached a picture of what the fried meatballs should look like after they're fried)
  • >
  • > - Put balls into a pot, dump the oil from frying pan and put water into the frying pan (to pick up all the stuff from the bottom) and dump the water over the meatballs. They should be just covered with water. Enough to make gravy with.

  • >
  • > Vegetable Soup
  • >
  • > - Get a package of drumsticks, put them in a pot and cover with water.
  • > - Boil the drumsticks halfway so that all the vegetables and chicken finish at the same time.
  • > - Cut vegetables and add to pot. Carrots, parsley, celery, onion, leek, potatoes.
  • > - Let it cook 15 to 20 minutes
  • > - Add green beans, cauliflower, cabbage (if you want)
  • > - At the end, after the other veggies are mostly cooked, add canned corn, peas, chickpeas.
  • > - Take some broth (probably ½ cup again) and cool it off
  • > - Add 3 tablespoons of sour cream and 2 to 3 tablespoons of flour to the cool broth. Mix it up. If it's too thick, add some cold water.
  • > - Put it back in the pot and mix it up. Add some dill and parsley.
  • > - If you want to change the taste of the soup, take some skinned tomatoes and fry them in butter until they're soft (almost like tomato sauce consistency) then add it to the soup.
