homemade beef Meatballs
Ground beef: You can make this recipe with either lean ground beef or regular ground beef. Breadcrumbs: I love using panko breadcrumbs in these meatballs however regular breadcrumbs can be substituted. Condiments: Ketchup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce are added. If you don’t have dijon mustard feel free to substitute stone ground, yellow mustard or dried.
Beef onion gravy
Onion: The onions are cooked until they are caramelized and golden brown. This adds so much flavor and richness to the dish. Garlic: I always have to add garlic. It adds so much flavor! Beef stock: We like to use low sodium beef broth. You can use chicken broth if you don’t have any beef stock on hand. Flour: Is used to thicken up the gravy along with the butter creating a roux.
How to make Salisbury Steak Meatballs
Make the meatballs: Add beef, breadcrumbs, egg, mustard, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce to a large bowl. Combine with your hands or a large spoon. Roll into 1 1/2 inch meatballs.
Heat oil in a large skillet. Working in batches add meatballs and brown on both sides, 2 minutes per side. (They will finish cooking in the sauce) Remove the meatballs and set aside.
Make the gravy: Add onions to the same skillet and cook over medium heat until light brown and caramelized 5-10 minutes. (You can add more oil or a splash of water if the onions are getting too brown) Add the butter to the skillet with the onions and melt. Next add in the garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the flour to the skillet and whisk until it forms a thick paste.
Slowly pour in the beef broth until it forms a thick gravy. Add in Worcestershire and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Return the meatballs back to the pan and simmer for 3-4 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through.
Serve: Immediately while the meatballs are still warm with fresh parsley for garnish.
