Categories     Pork

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup lean ground beef
1 egg
2 slices white bread, crusts removed
1 small onion, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon mace, ground
1/2 teaspoon pepper, ground
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup water or 1/2 cup beef stock
to taste ketjap manis or maggi seasoning

Steps:

  • Mix the meat with the egg, bread, onion, salt and spices and form 4-5 meatballs.
  • Chill for about 30 minutes.
  • Make into 4-6 meatballs.
  • Heat the butter and brown the meatballs for about 15 minutes, turning them a couple of times.
  • Reduce the heat to simmer and cook the meatballs for another 15 minutes, turning a few times.
  • Remove the meatballs, add the water or beef stock and bring to a high heat. Add a little ketjap manis or Maggi seasoning to the mixture and you will have a lovely gravy to serve with the meatballs.
  • NOTES : Some people coat the meatballs with breadcrumbs before frying.
  • We soak the bread in a bit of milk, and then press out the milk from the bread before adding to the ground beef.
  • We almost always use just the ground beef, and it is very good.
  • This is good served with homefries and lots of mayonnaise.

These meatballs are a great party food. They're easy to make ahead of time and they always disappear quickly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatballs turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

The meatballs were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add more spices next time.

These meatballs were a little too dry for my taste. I think I would add more liquid to the sauce next time.
